The Islam and America greed in the regio


Views and analyses by Mohammad Ahmad
 
How does the chaos come to Arabia Region?
It might be ensued because of a confliction going to arise here or there; the one noticeable thing we might discuss over all recently periods is that which began from al-Khumyney had brought the Islamic revolution in Iran.
I don’t need to state any document because I myself was engaged in all the battles between Iraq and Iran in the war that was broken out between the two neighbored countries, but the question I might ask or everyone might ask, is why the American stood supporting the regime of Saddam Hussein in that period?
Then they changed their policy against Saddam regime after Saddam troops went on invading al-Kuwait in August 1990, when they leaded a huge military campaign sharing with multiple nationality forces altogether cooperating to destroy the infrastructure of Iraq and destroying its military.
The war of America to Iraq has been suggested from that time and not in 2003 as allegations had come to accuse Iraq that it has WMD, and took in eyes as a source of generating risks in the region.
The matter isn’t so, it is a long- term policy of the US in the region and first of all to control on the sources of petrol and second to protect the frontiers of Israel as well as to make a new of land- division in the Middle East.
The juggling indication, where is to come?
Why do Shiites put themselves inside this war?
Is it there any previous of enmity indication between Sunni and Shiite?
Now it has been going boiling and if not the wise men of both sects, Sunni and Shiite will take controlling on and spreading out the values of real Islam essence, the matter will go for worse.
As we hear now the dissenting views and chaos has been reached the Saudi cities and it will come near to the Holy places Mecca and al-Medina.
This isn't poured into the behalf of Islam and it goes to dismantle the unity of Muslims everywhere in the world.
The first thing to take caution for, is to reestablish a good relation between all of the Islam sects and to discard away all of the variations should work as a stumbling block hampering the new generation from together working.
In this way of increasing society mutual relation and enhancing the sources of study and research by establishing joint-communicated centers of Islamic affairs can be amenable source for both Sunni and Shiite.
Hence and more for the future, we can throw the fire out of the region and we can be saved.
This is the only way we have to follow and unless of that the failure and the violence will stay shattering us either on economic aspects or on in any field of life.
What is the problem now?
Shiite and after this a long period of time arisen from the Prophetic Mission and the duration of Islamic caliphates of Companions who followed the Prophet, yet they still claiming that the Islamic caliphate must be confined to Imam Ali and his sons peace and mercy of Allah is upon all of them.
The matter probably maybe is truth or not since the Islamic Caliphate is based on a unanimously- consultation and this will subject to all views of the Islamic society.
What is to do now against all these contradictory views?
Is it to surrender to all these irresponsible views or to subject to all of those extremist people who hardly can keep on peace?
The matter is very difficult to deal with in this chaotic irritable world and it needs men of wisdom and of authentic nationalism in the same time.
May we see the time and our country will be free from violence?
I hope to see that, I hope I will see that

Three fellow dogs A, B and F


Three dogs (A, B, and F) decided to go for hunting, the senior dog said to his fellows, I am the biggest dog, and you might obey me in whatsoever I tell or order.
The three follows dogs went through the desert from north to south and from east to west, searching each valley they passed by if there was a bit hunt to eat.
When they felt fatigued, they stayed for a while to take a rest under a big tree overlooking on two small hills and began to discuss the difficulties of each one life.
The biggest dog was the first one to begin his story.
O, fellows B and F, I am on a real imperialistic self-identification I find myself was arranged to, I met many people everywhere face to face who said this to me.
I fell rather happy when they don't look disgustedly to me by their spyglass then I fell that I am eaten by the time and my age will be shortened and probably I will be chased by the misery everywhere to go.
The dog B, slightly going into coughing, telling the big dog and said:
You are bravo to do this all time alone even the smallest dogs you own, do not try to help you!
You are already had been chosen to this hard task.
You are indeed the leader who we need not only in our present time but also in our future.
The F dog also approved the way to speak and began to talk although it has an obvious stuttering into his speech, but he continued and said:
You are our bigger leader who taught us how to hunt and how to be alive in this undomesticated life.
Sir, to the big dog, the F dog turned on speech!
 
Don't you have Sir a young girl to engage with?
The big A, goes in speech as if it has a whooping- cough!
Yes, indeed, I had, but she neither married nor engaged!
Is she a widow Sir?
Or she is still spinster!
No, no indeed she is not a widow but she hates marriage, she preferred to live alone and always she is the most darling in our society.
What's her name Sir?
Why do you always ask a silly question?
Does she have not a name?
Indeed, it had, but we dislike calling her into her common name, but we rather call her the ES-J.
Can she speak fluently like us in dogs' language?
Yes, she can, but she offered to herself another language, it can't be easily understood only within her society.
You said it had society Sir. The B and F dogs slightly turned over on their stretched too long sofa.
Yes, it will examine her society in the beginning of each year and it may ask the church- owner for a sympathetic thing she likes to do!
 
I don't know why this a dog female deals with all these unconcern things to bring together deliciously all things to be united in a one matrix.
It is very serious to work and to do!
The big dog exclaimed!
It is not a dog female, it is rather princess and it has a golden throne!
She is my daughter, the daughter of her father, the Big Dog -A, you know, who is still strong as you see.
Indeed Sir you deserve this daughter.
Both B and F dogs replied in a faint voice.
The A dog being angry and somehow roaring into both faces looking around to see his response!
I am into thy speech more resentful and you may not sit near my round table, I might banish you if you don’t respect her!
There is a bit of silence as if a shadow of eagle comes down!
You must obey and hear my story…The dog A confirms…
I was born inside the jungles, I am not an ordinary dog, and indeed, I am a lion.
One day a Russian lion comes to the Mississippi -River around land and married with my mother.
Thus, we see a fur covered your ears!
 
The F dog, in slight bantering was crabbing to complete the verse.
 
I am proud if I had a European mother and a Russian father, this will make me jumping in rejoicing.
When the three fellows felt discouraged and frustrated to continue on hunting, they decided to build a new society in the Middle East; therefore, they need to find a group of dogs to consulting with them and for additional concreting advice.
So that they decided to go for Egypt and the rest countries of Arabia-West, otherwise they send another dispatcher to meet the dogs in the Gulf region, however to find assistance and gathering voices helping to establish the new society.
They pretend that the new society will ever keeps the dogs' rights in the different communities.
As they work so, many troubles arise on their way since there is another society is going to see the light, thus they need a jackal to do applicable translation is suitable to their allegations to be a truthful idea on the eyes of people.
The jackal came and found the mission is to hard to be achieved, thus he claims that the region still dark and needs additional lamps and lanterns since the way must be illuminated as far as people see.
The first prerequisite he suggested that F and B must be arrogated their tails are of A borrowed and to be quite sure F and B must go on propagating a new offspring, and the coming generations should be always without tails.
Otherwise, F and B must had a bed three nights with the biggest dog A, then the new society will be attended by his darling the ES-J whose name will be changed in the ceremony, which it is previously has been decided to be held on the last day.
All bugles attend and all horns attend, all men and women as well as all dogs from the Atlantic to the Persian Gulf everywhere come to hear the prelude and the choirs as they were shoving one another to be in the front of the hall.
The carnival ended and the jackal still has another suggestion.
F and B agreed when they saw dogs come scrambling to find a place hardly to be found for one's foot meanwhile many of them still out of the assembly hall whispering and shouting:
Be alive the dog A
 
Viva is to the dog A
On the other hand, other dogs went away into exclamation feeling in frustration since they had not voices to elect the new dogs' leader of the world.

When I am survived


I searched about her everywhere
Noting alarmed me here or there
My coffee always being bitter
At afternoon and wherever I go
Here my stars being stuck
In the mouth of ocean I sail
 And no more I anchored inland
Tropically weather singed me
 And the wind scoots as if a mad
Between the waves, I remembered you
About to be drowned I shouted "Dos"!
My message yet doesn't reach her
In the midis of my emotion, I took a nap
There I heard the sound of seabirds
Saying welcome, you are survive
I came back where the anchor close
To be in my country at the midnight
Entering my room, I find a reply
You are alarmed not to be sailed

A palmist


Naked chest walked in streets
Barefoot chases her shadow
A strange lady never seen in city
Comes from Bengal or Asia Minor
Asked a café owner for a hot cup
Chewing her tongue from time to time
A lady of opened eyes and watchfully
Of tall height as tall as a tower
In her hand, she grasped a yellow rose
She kisses it a minute twice
Of a slim abdomen being shaken
And two arms as branches of bamboo
And a waist is too fit for dancing
while her two big breasts,
out of her bras were prominent
And when someone passed,
She would stand as a soldier
To reply a military greeting
Once when someone paid,
She would say OK
An eccentric girl of no emotion
Half of her legs were spotted
But she reads other fortunes
She tells everyone what he wants
Has been learned the palmistry
Stalking through streets,
As a chased hunt she runs
Excuse me not to more I describe 
 
My eyes were fascinated in her

Urban Dictionary: Selfie-Conscious

Sunday, May 18, 2014

Night, guitar and a cup of coffee
And the river sweeping up its waves
Between this and that, I have emotion
Darling thing never can be forgotten
Some of birds were going sleep.
And night blows its breeze coolly  
While the vision of the stars turn aside
Enormously its shadow touched down
A moment comes as if a revolted tyranny
Once an echo staved off my emotion
Meanwhile it was too dark feeling disturbed
I picked up my stuff to welcome the desert
Thrown my suitcase, I set up a fire
And the blues covered me from all sides.
Remotely it comes as if a Newton apple
A moment my desire was declined
I passed asking the moon what was defined.
It clavately turned as if it had eclipse
And runs as if it had inevitable journey
By God, what happens to my mind?
Deserted only my thick hear I scratched
Nevertheless of all these amusements,
My feet dragged me to trapping
I stood as an angle of attack ascending.
The moment of curse I stopped
And as a retreating oneself I hastened       

No, Iraq must not be divided

  No, Iraq must not be divided
Across history Iraq is united
You the politicians are dismantled
You the voices I hear selfishly shouted
Keep peace or shall we turn revolted
You can't do that only over our corpses
To redeem our Home, we mount our horses  
From north to south, we are one clapped hand
Viva to you country you may lively stand.
Nevertheless, we are sects or factions,
Our nation voice is one at hard missions.
Thou who claimed the victor in division,
You are monkeys out of any function.
My heart is with those poor everywhere
Thou country must always take care
A digital morph ever has a unique tune.  
As a pot never stands on one stone
O, my Iraq, let our dead tear out their shrouds
Tigris and Euphrates yet to thy deed are proud.
Nay, the country of honour still undivided
Eye! Every palm tree shall be frustrated
Aye, every stone shall be violently enraged
O, those, who, want their sway to be wide!
To which part can you stay if Iraq leads to divide?
Iraq is one Home having similar countryside
The same traditions of generosity and pride
Iraq is the core of sun that gives us light
The scythe of farmer glows optically bright.
The wristwatch never I put it back

O, my country: live long as a flying hawk.           

sorrow

Sorrow
I tore up my sorrow
I removed my sorrow
Let it go up mountains
Let it a slippery slope and died
To be as a gliding tone then stopped
To be smoothed in the sun
To never has been aches
To never its worms pinches
Is sorrow touchable?
Indeed, there is sorrow
Everywhere there is abuse
Everywhere there is death
Everywhere there is birth
But there is no freedom
Even if the slavery has been dated up,
Yet it comes as a new fashionable red light
Somewhere its gaps drafted and marched
In the marshes it was immersed
With our water it was immersed
Can't it be drinkable?
I know that something is wrong
Perhaps something in this life is wrong
 Yet there is a swan song
Yet there is friendship and song
Yet neighbours to neighbours long
Let them burned the sun
But not to burn up our fashionable moon

Everywhere

Everywhere

Your vision meets me everywhere
As a dawn breaks over my mansion
As a thicket walled with a shapeless wall
Once it comes as a multiple choice
Once it tickles my joints up to my arms
As I am feverish in amidst of winter
Yet I have tow letters to tell you
One is yours and other is mine.
And the clue of all these is time.      
Your vision comes up as a joyful music
Everywhere I listened as if deaf
But the murmur of leaves makes me awake
Suddenly it hesitated as if thick foams.
But I know, yet I know it is just dream   
Whence my destiny runs out of my passion
Once I cannot meet your eyes
Once you grow up large and educated
Yet I am just a hobbyist reader
Has been lost amidst of old papers
For what shall I read?
To which extent can I read?
Just a worthless human skippering at doors
O, the grief, let me shut up and never speak!
Since the flood never comes to my area
Am I dreamy? Or
 Am I a pensionable man?
No, I worked and still I work
My dream is to see blazing stars
Yet forgotten and diminished in our desert
As a stopless end of an old o'clock 
There the orchard of my life where you stop
There the moment of joy shall envelope
To be a wedding party for last years
Don’t disturb me again please
Your name is the bell jar of my time
"Nevertheless of all these"
Your vision meets me everywhere

Elections & wrathful River

They will go election
To choose bad and mad,
They go election
For whom would they vote?
Deception
Monkeys never had exception
My coat further than bore had
Is it truly interruption?
Yes, it is a hard mission.
To choose who has a savage intention
But let it always intervention
To stop this mockable superstition
To whom is the mission?
Let's ten years burned under the sun
Let's a singed loaf of bread we eat
Just to live in dignity
To wear nothing
But to live proud
Our orchard has shattered walls
Our camel died
Iraq after occupation died forever
By their azure fingerprint
They would spot the freedom
O, my Tigris River
For what do you wait?
Are you sill humorous?
No, you may stop your waves…
You may cry and shout
Enough to be always sage
You may weed out the blight
You may flood again
To take away the heap of mud
To clear out the desert
O, the wrathful River
Root up the red-handed
Root up every prison they built
Root up their deceptive skies
Sweep away their houses and their livestock
To be clear out from Satan
Release the shackled hands   
Return each absent back to his mother.
*******     *******    *******
For a long time you haven’t flood
Flood it, don't be afraid
Flood it and release my poems
Flood it to purify the conscience  
Flood it, don't be lazy or laggard
And I shall sacrifice you by my life
Ask them…
Do they have a real decision?
Lining up they go election!
Ask them not to dance on thy waterside
O, my dreamy River
O, my sad River
O, the eternal River
You many not die
You inspire my freedom
You are a half of my life
You should never depart
Your tune should never die
And I shall wait you forever.

A blind eagle

The blind eagle
Poem to children
Written by
Mohammad Mahmud Ahmad
Iraq – Mosul 

On day, we have a trip nearside the thicket   
Seeing a large eagle roaming over the forest  
Flies happily and stretched out its wings
After awhile we find a large nest
We were astonishing that one of the nestlings was blind
We tried to help him and carrying him to another side
Her mother attacked us suddenly and awfully
I feared the consequent since I was child
We hide ourselves between the thickets until her mother feeds him
Hardly can we see because of the place is dark and dim
One of us tied the blind nestling legs and we left back
We guess it has strong body although it is slim
The small eagle recovers and becomes happy 
We find that our journey was useful and lucky
The small eagle becomes our friend until to the fly is capable
Gratefully to us our good deed and flies proudly and lofty.
We must thank Allah who made this nature in our souls
The humanitarianism is one the essential Islamic rules       
We are Muslims and we follow our Prophet the most humanitarian 
And we can do every charitable deed as our religion calls

Million parts and he still alive

Million parts and he is still alive
Perhaps a loaf of bread in dignity
Perhaps as a human finding a shelter
Perhaps he would see his mournful daughter
Who she lost her a plastic doll
Let he himself could kill the idol
Between the alfalfas near the black hill
He lost her forever
He bought for her a bit of sugar
To himself, why am I hummer!
Her pink rose still cast away
Near the railway
Dimly and silently they went away
Without saying good by
And the guffawing children still nonchalantly
Monkey with their trifle Sun
Always they would mock at Fate
As if their mock sun laughs
In the part of their black Angel
A penny they have to buy bread
No shelter, no firebrand
Even the white-yellowy hen was killed 
In a stormy night staving their orchards
To whom would he answer?
To the gone away caravans!
Or to the tear still jailed in his eyelids.

All human things ترجمة للعربية

John Dryden (1631-1700)

A Satire upon the (True blue Protestant Poet T.S.):

All human things are subject to decay,
And, when Fate summons, monarchs must obey:
كل ما لدى الناس آيل للفناء
وعندما ينادي القدر فلا للعروش من بقاء
This Flecknoe found, who, like Augustus, young
Was call'd to empire, and had govern'd long:
وفلاكنو هذا يشبه سابقه قيصر الشاب
دُعي إلى السلطة وحكم زمنا طويلا بعد غياب 
In prose and verse, was own'd, without dispute
Through all the realms of Non-sense absolute,
في كل نثر وشعر بلا جدال لم يكن له نِد
وعن كل خفي من أمور الممالك كان المطلق المستبد
This aged prince now flourishing in peace,
And blest with issue of a large increase,
هذا الأمير المُعَمِّر الآن عهده طمأنينة وسلام
وينعم في مسألة أنيِطت به كبيرة بين الأنام
Worn out with business, did at length debate
To settle the succession of the State:
أمتاز عهده بكثرة الجدال والنقاش
من أجل أن يوطد خلافة الدولة أصابه الانكماش
And pond'ring which of all his sons was fit
To reign, and wage immortal war with wit;
فتأملَ كثيرا ليجد من بين أبناءه كفئا يحكم الولايات
ليتقلد الحكم ويشنَّ حربا طويلة كلها فكاهات
Cry'd, 'tis resolv'd; for nature pleads that he
Should only rule, who most resembles me:
فصاح هذا من يدافع عن الحمى فيخلفني  
ولا ينبري للحكم ألا من هو شبيها لي
Shadwell alone my perfect image bears,
Mature in dullness from his tender years.
شادويل يحمل نسخة مني في ذاكرته
ناضجٌ في البلاهة منذ نعومة نشأته
Shadwell alone, of all my sons, is he
Who stands confirm'd in full stupidity.
شادويل هو الوحيد بين أبنائي من يحمل صفاتي
وهو يؤكد بكل غباوة حرفيا لمفرداتي
The rest to some faint meaning make pretence,
But Shadwell never deviates into sense.
أما الآخرون فقد تظاهروا بقليل من معناها
لكن شادويل لم يزغ أبدا عن مغزاها
Some beams of wit on other souls may fall,
Strike through and make a lucid interval
بعض من نوابغ الفطنة ربما تتضاءل في نفوس الآخرين
لتتضارب فيما بينها متخبطة بين عقل وجنون بعد حين
But Shadwell's genuine night admits no ray,
His rising fogs prevail upon the day:
لكن ليل شادويل الحقيقي ليس فيه ضياء
ضبابيته تسود على النهار كله حتى المساء
Besides his goodly fabric fills the eye,
And seems design'd for thoughtless majesty:
أضف إلى هيئته التي تملأ العيون لضخامته  
ويبدو أ نه معد ٌليكون سلطانٌ طائشٌ في رعيته    
Thoughtless as monarch oaks, those shade the plain,
And, spread in solemn state, supinely reign.
السلطانُ الأرعنُ كما البلوط الذي لا يُظلل كل المكان
ينتشرُ حُكمُه بشكل كسول علي مملكته الجليلة الأركان 
Heywood and Shirley were but types of thee,
Thou last great prophet of tautology:
هيود وشيرلي لم يكونا منك  ألا شيئا يسيرا  
وأنت القائد الملهم الذي يكرس الخلافة حرفيا
Even I, a dunce of more renown than they,
Was sent before but to prepare thy way;
ومع ذلك فأني  في الغباء أ كثر شهرة  منك
كنت قد أصدرتها مسبقا لأمهد السلطة لأجلك
And coarsely clad in Norwich drugget came
To teach the nations in thy greater name
وألبسْ زياً نرويجيا المصنوع من خشن اللباد
لتُعلم ْالشعبَ دروساً باسمك العظيم
My warbling lute, the lute I whilom strung
When to King John of Portugal I sung,
عودي الرنان الذي أوترتُه منذ سنين طوال
قد عزفت به عندما حكم الملك جون البرتغال  
Was but the prelude to that glorious day,
When thou on silver Thames did'st cut thy way,
ولم تكن سوى موسيقى تمهيدية عزفتها في ذلك اليوم البهي
لم تعبر نهر التايمز بعد وحينها كنت َ غضا ندي 
With well tim'd oars before the royal barge,
Swell'd with the pride of thy celestial charge;
أمام البارجة الملكية بمجاديفها الجميلة حينذاك كنت أرعاك
تبجحت بالزهو من أجل الأمر السماوي الذي أولاك
And big with hymn, commander of an host,
The like was ne'er in Epsom blankets toss'd.
في ضيافة قائد البلاط عزفَ النشيد وكنت كبير
فلا مثيل لك في دثار ايبسون قد تقلّبَ على سرير 
Methinks I see the new Arion sail,
The lute is still trembling underneath thy nail.
بدا لي وكأني أشاهد أيريون بشراعها الجديد
والعود يهتز تحت أظفرك باعثا لحنا فريد  
At thy well sharpen'd thumb from shore to shore
The treble squeaks for fear, the basses roar:
وإبهامك الحاد الجميل يتنقل بين أشواط تائهات
ألحان تتزايد أضعافا كجعجعة ذئاب بحر خائفات    
Echoes from Pissing-Alley, Shadwell call,
And Shadwell they resound from Aston Hall.
من زقاق بايسنك  صراخ شادويل هزَّ عاليا في صداه
 ومن صالة آستون يرددوه قد ألفوا ذكراه
About thy boat the little fishes throng,
As at the morning toast, that floats along.
أما عن قاربك فقد أحتوى سمكا قليلا
في الصباح يحمص منه من طفا طويلا 
Sometimes as prince of thy harmonious band
Thou wield'st thy papers in thy threshing hand.
 أحيانا تبدو كأمير لفرقة موسيقى متناسقة النغم واللون
لذا لن تكون كورقة في أيديهم يعصفون بها كيفما يشاءون
St. Andre's feet ne'er kept more equal time,
Not ev'n the feet of thy own Psyche's rhyme:
أقدام القديس(أندري) لا تكاد تتثبت طويلا باستقامة
ولا ميزان أشْعارِك الأسطورية تصِلُ إلى الهامة    
Though they in number as in sense excel;
So just, so like tautology they fell,
لذا فعُدتّهم لا تفرقُ عن عددهم كما يتوقعون 
كلها مجرد حشو كلام هكذا يشعرون   
That, pale with envy, Singleton forswore
The lute and sword, which he in triumph bore
هو الحسد المقيت بعينه قد دفع سنكليتون لقَسَمٍ كاذب
أدعى زورا أن السيف والعود جلبهما من نصرِ ساحق
And vow'd he ne'er would act Villerius more.
Here stopt the good old sire; and wept for joy
ولم يسبق له أن تعهّد كما تعهّد فاليروس قبله بسنين
إذ وقف وقفة شموخ وبكى من أجل سعادة الآخرين 
In silent raptures of the hopeful boy
All arguments, but most his plays, persuade,
وفي نشوة صامتة لصبي يتطلع لكل باب
رغم الجدال نالت معظم مسرحياته الإعجاب
That for anointed dullness he was made
Close to the walls which fair Augusta bind,
وفعلَ ذلك كلّه من أجلِ مَسْحِ الغم عنها
قرب جدران معرض أوكستا أو قريبا منها
 (The fair Augusta much to fears inclin'd)
An ancient fabric, rais'd t'inform the sight,
كان أوكستا يعد من المعارض الشهيرة ذات حين
يتضمن منسوجات قديمة ترتقي لجلب الناظرين
There stood of yore and Barbican it hight:
A watch tower once; but now, so fate ordains,
حصن منيع منذ قدم العصر واقفا  كان يُدعى:
 بُرجُ الساعةِ ولكن القدر قَضَي عليه فيما مضى
Of all the pile an empty name remains.
From its old ruins brothel-houses rise,
من ركام ِالماضي بقى أسما فارغا وحجارة
وعلى أنقاضه تم بناء بيت الدعارة 
Scenes of lewd loves, and of polluted joys
Where their vast courts, the mother-strumpets keep,
خلى المكانُ لمشهدِ حُبٍ فاسق ٍ وعَبث ٍ قذرٍ أباحَ لمحرمات
جعلوا من فناءاتهم  الواسعة مأوى للداعرات
And, undisturb'd by watch, in silence sleep.
Near these, a nursery erects its head,
قرب حضانة الطفل يلوذ بصمت وسكون
ينتصب شامخا بلا حرس أو عيون
Where queens are form'd, and future heroes bred;
Where unfledg'd actors learn to laugh and cry,
حيثما تتوالد الملكات وخيول المستقبل ذات النسل العريق
  والراقصاتُ النواشيءُ يتعلمنَّ الضحكَ والبكاء
Where infant punks their tender voices try,
And little Maximins the gods defy.
حيث الأطفال الصغار يتعلمون بداية الكلمات
فتتنكر مكعبات الحساب الصغيرة لتلك المعبودات   
Great Fletcher never treads in buskins here,
Nor greater Jonson, dares in socks appear
فلا فلاشر العظيم يتاجر بالأحذية الجلدية الطويلة هنا
ولا جونسون الأكبر منه يجرؤ بمتاجرة الجوارب علنا 
But gentle Simkin just reception finds
Amidst this monument of vanish'd minds:
لكن سمكين الوديع وجد حجرة للاستقبال هناك
بين جنبات النصب الخالي من كل عقل وأدراك
Pure clinches, the suburbian muse affords;
And Panton waging harmless war with words.
عناق طاهر جلبه وحي القروي من صرعاته
بينما بانتون شنَّ حرباً مهلكةً بسيل كلماتِه  
Here Flecknoe, as a place to fame well known,
Ambitiously design'd his Shadwell's throne.
وهنا يسعى فليكوني ليجعل من شادويل رجلا مشهور
وبحماس أعدَّ  لصاحبه عرشا بين القصور
For ancient Decker prophesi'd long since,
That in this pile should rein a mighty prince
 ومنذ القدم تنبأ ديكير زمنا طويلا بعقل سوي
في هذا الركام سَيمسَكُ بزمام ِ السلطة ِالقوي
