ON A BRANCH

On a branch,
                      beaming with blossoms,
A sweet singing bird is warbling;
And, delighted
with the blessings of the moment,
It wags its tail.

It seem as if it already has
Everything I want,
                      but have never found;
Or as if it perfectly knows
Whatever Man will never understand.

 

Mahmud Kianush
