Poem
Hassan Najmi
the blueness of evening
I desire other places to see youGrass to rest on
And thirsty tongue
To drink with and to name you
I desire night.
I desire another settlement to my days
And I desire you
In the blueness of evening , how much I desire
And how much do I not desire…
Ah , and this shiver coming
With the cold of night!
From: A little life

the blueness of evening
I desire other places to see youGrass to rest on
And thirsty tongue
To drink with and to name you
I desire night.
I desire another settlement to my days
And I desire you
In the blueness of evening , how much I desire
And how much do I not desire…
Ah , and this shiver coming
With the cold of night!

And how much do I not desire…
Ah , and this shiver coming
With the cold of night!
