Thanks to agejus for this:
People throwing dinars at the belly dancers
In a sad CIRCUS by a trench of burning oil
People throw belongings, a lifetime's earnings,
Amongst the scattered rubbish,
Suitcases on the sidewalk.
Date palms and orange and tangerine trees,
And eyes are crying for everything.
SO I TALK TO an old man by the generator
HE WAS STANDING ON THE GRAVEL by the fetid river,
He turned to me then surveyed the scene,
Said: "War is here in our beloved city".
Sometime in the river and tried to swim away -- ??
through times the sewage they written on the forehead
Date palms and orange and tangerine trees,
And eyes are crying for everything
Let in buuuurn!
