Evolution

 

Struggle has continued from eternity till the present day
Between the lamp of Mustafa and the spark of Bu Lahab

Life is flame-tempered, high-minded and fervent
It's nature is resolving difficulty, bearing cruelty

From the evening's quietude till the morning's song
There are many a stage of the midnight  wailing!

Struggle exists between the heat and  cold,  throbbing and shaping
From  the dark dust to the polished glass of Halab!

The phenomena of making and  breaking, squeezing, heating and distilling
Exist between the drop of spring rain and the heat of the grape wine!

Nations live by this continuous struggle alone
This alone is the secret of the Arab nation's struggle!

The tavern-keepers making wine from the grape
Break the stars and construct the sun
