Analysis of If only I had
If only I had
If only I had two wings
like a bird,
If only I had perfume
like Anemones,
If I had Honey
like the fruits of Pomegranate,
If only I had Power
Like King Solomon,
If only I owned the world
Or I own the Garden of Redwan :
I would have put all the women
on one scale and put you in the other
and my heart is with you
Your scale would be heavier
So, say what you want
and boast as you wish
Your name will immortalize
in my poetry over time!
