I  WISH  TO BE  IN  CRYING CHINA

  

I wish 

To be  the  handkerchief  of  crying eyes

To be  the catcher of   arms  which  beg  for  the rescue

To be  the  medicine  to  the  bloody  sores

To be  the  light  of  ending  hopes I  wish

To  be  the  shoulder  to the Chinese  who  cries  after  a  funeral

To  be  the  guide  to  the man   looks  for    his  lost  relatives

To  be  the  bandage  to  the  survivor

 

And  also  I  wish  to  show to  all  Human  beings

To  show  and  to  make  them  seeing   that

It  does not  matter  in  fact

Even if we are   German, Turkish , Chinese or anybody

Even if we haven’t got  slanting  eyes

Each  of  us  have  hitting  hearts 

And  each  of  us  stay  foible

When we  met  with disasters  and 

When  we  met  with  death 

And  also  I  wish  to  give   the  answer

The  answer  of  the  question: “Is  this the  world  or  anywhere  else?”

And  say : In  fact  this  is  the  real  world

The world  of    disasters  and   miracles

And  by  this  nodding

Tasting the  delicious  happiness 

The  happiness  of  surviving  despite  whole  disasters 

Yes, that  happiness  is  the  real  one

The  secret  of  happiness  passes from  the  road  of converting  a  bog  into   a  forest

  

CRYING CHINA,

Please  DON’T  CRY

Never  forget  this  Turkish  saying:

“Black  clouds  are  not  always  the signal of  snowy days”

 

Yes,this  is  the  truth

Sun  will  also  shine on China  one day 

And who can  guess

Perhaps  that  day is sooner than  today…

Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash.

Congratulations that you have the ability to burn for the ones far far away. You should have a great heart and sense of emphaty.
