Al Jamilat (The Beautiful Ones)

English Translation:
Beauties are beautiful
"The tattoos of the 'violin' around the waist"
The beauties are vulnerable
"A throne without memory"

The beauties are the strong ones
"A desperation that shines but does not burn"
The beauties are princesses
"Mistresses of an anxious revelation"

The beauties are the relatives
"A rainbow neighbors"
The beauties are the distant ones
"Like songs of joys"

The beauties are the poor ones
"Such as roses in the battlefield"
The beauties are the lonely ones
"Such as the slaves serving the Queen"

The beauties are the tall ones
"The aunts of a palm tree touching the sky"
The beauties are the short ones
"Drank a cup of water"

The beauties are the older woman
"Mango peeled and wine mellowed":
The beauties are the young ones
"The promise of a future and the buds of a lily"

Beautiful, all beautiful, you

If they came together to choose for me the noblest killer

(Translation by Diane Skelton)
