هذا الطريقُ بلا قافية
Hatha al-tareequ bila qafiya
This road without rhyme
بحره يعانقُ السماء
Bahruhu yu'aniqu as-sama'
Its sea embraces the sky
فارمي البوصلة..
Fa-irmi al-bawsala..
So throw away the compass..
لأن البحر ابتلع يابستَه حين أبحَرْنا،
Li'anna al-bahra ibtala'a yabisatahu heena abḥarna,
Because the sea swallowed its land when we set sail,
وإن كنا مسافرينَ إلى السماء
Wa in kunna musafireena ila as-sama'
And if we are traveling to the sky
فكل اتجاهتنا صحيحة ..
Fakullu ittijahatuna saheeha ..
Then all our directions are correct ..
كل ما هنا سائل،
Kullu ma huna sa'il,
Everything here is fluid,
مشاعرنا، مياه البحر،
Masha'iruna, miyah al-bahr,
Our feelings, the sea waters,
محاجرنا والزمن..
Mahajiruna wa az-zaman..
Our eye sockets and time..
لا صلبٌ هنا إلا أيادينا المتشابكة..
La sulbun huna illa ayadeena al-mutashabika..
Nothing solid here but our intertwined hands..
هل كنا أحرارًا حين اخترنا التماسكَ
Hal kunna ahraran heena ikhtarna at-tamasuk
Were we free when we chose to hold on
بين كل هذه السوائل التي تحرِّكها الرياح؟!
Bayna kulli hathehi as-sawa'il allati tuharrikuha ar-riyah?!
Among all these fluids moved by the winds?!
هل نملك أصابعَ من خيزران أم أغصان شجر؟
Hal namliku asabi'a min khayzuran am aghsan shajar?
Do we have fingers of bamboo or tree branches?
هل تعفو عنَّا الرياح وتتركَ أقلامنا بجانبنا
Hal ta'fu 'anna ar-riyah wa tatruka aqlamana bijanibina
Will the winds forgive us and leave our pens beside us
كي نعيد رسم الخريطة؟!
Kay nu'eed rasma al-khareeta?!
So we can redraw the map?!
وتعودُ اليابسة لتشرق عليها الشمس
Wa ta'oodu al-yabisa litushriqa 'alayha ash-shams
And the land returns for the sun to shine upon it
فيتبخر الماء من حولنا
Fa-yatabakhkharu al-ma'u min hawlina
So the water around us evaporates
ويهطل المطر؟
Wa yahṭulu al-matar?
And the rain falls?
أم أنّا محكومون إلى غرقٍ في هذا التيه
Am anna mahkoomoona ila gharaqin fi hatha at-teeh
Or are we condemned to drown in this迷 (maze/bewilderment)
وندفع ثمن حُريَّتنا، لنذهب مع اليابسة..
Wa nadfa'u thaman hurriyatina, linathhaba ma'a al-yabisa..
And pay the price of our freedom, to go with the land..
هل كان يستحقُّ الأمرُ كلَّ هذا؟
Hal kana yastahiqqu al-amru kulla hatha?
Was it all worth it?

Hatha al-tareequ bila qafiya
This road without rhyme

“لأن البحر ابتلع يابستَه حين أبحَرْنا،”
Li'anna al-bahra ibtala'a yabisatahu heena abḥarna,
Because the sea swallowed its land when we set sail,
The sea swallowing the land implies a loss of foundation, stability, or familiar ground, leaving the travelers adrift in an unknown expanse.
“لا صلبٌ هنا إلا أيادينا المتشابكة..”
La sulbun huna illa ayadeena al-mutashabika..
Nothing solid here but our intertwined hands..
This line highlights that in a world of constant flux, the only constant and solid element is human connection and mutual support.
