In the Station of the Metro

[`¤*«مُحمدْ البادِيْ»*-¤]

In the Station of the Metro
By Ezra Pound

The apparition of these faces in the crowd;
Petals on a wet, black bough.



I recall reading this poem before. It's presumed to be the shortest poem ever written. I do not know for sure if there is a shortest poem than this one

 

[`¤*«مُحمدْ البادِيْ»*-¤]

فكرت في ترجمة لها غير أنني لا أدعي أنها مثاليه ولكنها قريبة

في محطة المترو (قطار الأنفاق)
الوجوه الشاحبة في الزحام
مثل بتلات على غصن اسود رطب

 

[ŔξVẼήĜξ]

It's really nice imagery
and yes they'll be like that

I like it
