The Treacherous Sea Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

The Treacherous Sea



No one is bigger than the sea Inside it or outside it, All people dwarfs if they're compared to It, The sea is treacherous and it does not a Promise, There were many people who died inside it and they went in vain, Never play with any sea and never kid with it, It may laugh to us and it May let us cry at the same time, The sea is treacherous... I swear God! It is treacherous, There were many who died in the sea when Touched the sea's edge, If anyone drowns, then He will go for ever and ever... There are some people who play sometimes with the sea, then they manage, but There are some people who sometimes play with it, then they fail.... This is a sea...It's not a swimming-pool............... The sea is treacherous! No one can play with it! One must understand the game's rules! _____________________________________________I translated this poem from the Latakian dialect... _____________________________________________
