Analysis of The chance
The chance
By :Atef Al-gendi
(To a Christian friend)
Translated by :
Hassan hegazy Hassan
////
My friend,
Calm down,
This matter needs a spacious open heart
We came to life one day,
We were the only grasp of wind?!
By chance, I believed what the Prophet said,
By accident, I believed
What the Christ said
When we inherited the religion
From the house of the forefathers
As we inherit the ِِِAgate or the tin
We have done nothing
We have no grace
It is the crippled luck to bless!
You could have been as I am
And I will be just like you
Lived comfortably in the cross
Let Your Jesus holds
All the groups and join me
I have left my intolerance
And saying that the religion
Which is different from that in my identity
Is an explicit error
This space embrace us all
And includes thousands of sores
By any right or any logic
We kill each other
And all in this world is
Just a sacrifice?!
