Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature | | Arabic term or phrase: Ya, Leïla, lia… Alef leïlat ou leïla, ya leïla, lia! | Thami goes on dreaming, after the ‘Chta! Chta! Sebbatou aând al qadi!’ part, his visions continue: “…water bubbled up out of the earth on all sides. He had ordered it all to be. The night is a woman clothed in a robe of burning stars… ‘Ya, Leïla, lia…’ (then comes another interval, to be continued by…) ‘Alef leïlat ou leïla, ya leïla, lia!’”
(considering I’m translating the text to Turkish, can you pls put the Arabic originals too, so I can use them for the Turkish transcription?) |
