‎You and I

You’re beautiful like a liberated homeland

I’m exhausted like a colonized one.

You’re sad as a forsaken person, fighting on

I’m agitated as a war near at hand.

.وأنا متعب كوطن محتل

أنتِ حزينة كمخذول يقاوم

وأنا مستنهض كحرب وشيكة

قصيدة أنتِ و أنا للراحل الشاعر مريد البرغوثي لزوجته الراحلة رضوى عاشور.
