Brother, misery nestled everywhere - through our will.
Do not lament. Others do not hear our woe.
Instead follow me with a pick and spade that we may dig a trench in which to hide our dead.

Dear brother, who are we without a neighbour, kin or country?
We sleep and we wake clad in shame.

The world breathes our stench, as it did that of the dead.
Bring the spade and follow me -  dig another trench for those still alive.

- My brother, Mikhail Naimy

A very personal and heartfelt article from Ali Al-Jamri that blends family history, folk dialect poetry and women’s stories of serfdom in Bahrain
Some poems are hard to read without feeling a lump building in your heart. But it is wonderfull to see this part of history preserved.
