Think of Others
Mahmoud Darwish
2005
While making breakfast, think of others
[don't forget the pigeons' feed]
While fighting your wars, think of others
[don't forget those who want peace]
While paying your water bill, think of others
[those who are drinking the clouds]
While walking home, think of others
[don't forget the people of the tents]
While sleeping and counting planets, think of others
[there are those who don't have a place to sleep]
While liberating yourself with metaphors, think of others
[those who lost the right to speak]
While thinking of the distant others, think of yourself
[say: I wish I were a candle in the dark]
