My Ticket (The Estrangement 2)
The taste of distance is patience
And estrangement is a pale night
Oh my hurting heart
Don’t you worry
If distances stretch
Hope and I are two brothers
And night is our third
In it (Egypt) is the Nile
And in it is my soul
I didn’t choose to leave
But my hunger (for something better) was sick and tired
Damn you ambition!
All you could do was find me a sponsor (for work abroad)
In my country I wasn’t dependent
But I wasn’t seen
The flower of my years was small (lean)
Even though I have dear ones
Interpret my vision (dream) for me
How did they collect the wishes
Onto the passport
Forbidden from the light?
Distance from you was frightening
And I’m eager to return
But how am I to go back
And my place is full of visitors
Oh my hurting heart
Oh sighs embracing tears
The love of country lives on
When the hunger dies
Oh embrace holding me
That I depended on and then betrayed me
The minute it (the embrace) held out its arms for me
It waved and left me
But I’m not worried
I have a return ticket
