By Sherko Bekas, Translated by Dr. Koohzad:
Right in front of the sky’s eyes,They stole the cloud.
Then, they took the wind in front of the cloud’s eyes,
The rain in front of the wind’s eyes, and
The land in front of the rain’s eyes.
Finally, in front of all the eyes,
They took the two living eyes and buried them alive.
Those eyes were the ones that saw the thieves.
