1 <br />Many years have passed since the day, <br />I looked into a mirror, saw a wrinkled face. <br />I've been disclosed to the bulging sands of my bed. <br /> <br />2 <br />Aeons of breath account for the many veins in my atrium. <br /> <br />3 <br />The bull I breast-fed for many years <br />And I've submerged into the frame. <br /> <br />4 <br />I knew the justifications were hard, <br />Hard as against the current of water. <br />No news from the ambiguous points <br />something uncommon. <br />It can't be justified by natural rules, <br />many years we've been tangled on it. <br /> <br />5 <br />The rented land is part of an island, <br />No finger points in any direction. <br />Lost in the dead-end alleys <br />Tracing images without a compass. <br /> <br />6 <br />Horse pounding pulse sing endlessly in my blood. <br />My kinsmen of horses… <br />Blood-line linked as to rays of a circle <br />like roots of a tree growing deep on the roof. <br /> <br />7 <br />You can't stop the hands of the clock. <br />You can't come back to the broken minutes. <br />The days have been arranged one after another. <br />The knights have left the game one after another. <br /> <br />8 <br />There was a straw mat where you fell asleep. <br />I became numb, quite used to the stillness of the house. <br /> <br />9 <br />Was something supposed to get away from the core <br />to join us? <br />A century has passed and we still live in this house. <br /> <br /> <br />10 <br />Dimentions have shifted <br />Not exclusive to the roof <br />The letters approved us as the residents of the house <br />They ran away as the convicts <br />And we got used to the standstill. <br /> <br /> <br />(TRANSLATED BY THE AUTHOR)<br /><br />Rosa Jamali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-angles-of-the-frame-translated-from-original-persian-to-english/
