Title
Each small candle
Text
Submitted by Rumo
Source language: English

Not the torturer will scare me
Nor the body's final fall
Nor the barrels of death's rifles
Nor the shadows on the wall
Nor the night when to the ground
The last dim star of pain is hurled
But the blind indifference
Of a merciless unfeeling world

And each small candle
Lights a corner of the dark...
Remarks about the translation
From a song by Roger Waters

Please keep sense and meaning, translations have not necessarily got to be as poetical (but if you have nice lyrical ideas, don't hesitate to use them).^^





Title
كلّ شمعة صغيرة
Translation
Arabic

Translated by shadim
Target language: Arabic

لَيسَ المعذّبَ سَيُخيفُني
ولا سقوطُ الجسمَ النهائيَ
ولا البراميلُ مِنْ بنادقِ الموتِ
ولا الظلالُ على الحائطِ
ولا الليلُ عندما على الأرض
إنّ النجمَ الخافتَ الأخيرَ للألمِ مَقْذُوفُ
لكن اللامبالاةَ العمياءَ
عالم قاسي عديم الشعور

وكُلّ شمعة صغيرة
تضيء زاوية الظلامِ. . .

May I suggest a better Arabic translation? I can't submit it using the "translate" button.

Here goes ..

لا المُعَذِّبُ باللذِي يُخِيفُنِي
وَلا السُّقُوطُ الأَخِيْرُ لِلجَسَدِ
وَلا مَواسِيرُ بَنَادِقِ المَوْتِ
وَلا الظِلالُ عَلَى الجُدْرَانِ
وَلا اللَّيلُ إذْ نَحْوَ الأَرْضِ
يَنْدَفِعُ آخِرُ نُجُومِ الأَلَمِ الخَافِتَةِ

بَل اللامُبالاةُ العَمياءُ
لِلعالَمِ القاسِي بِلا شُعُورٍ

كُلُّ شَمْعَةٍ صَغِيرَةٍ
تُضيءُ زاويَةً فِي الظَّلامِ

I didn't say it's wrong, it's okay, but I think it's a bit weak, that's all

Well, since this translation is from July/2007, I guess the requester must have used it already.
Anyway he will receive your message.

Any way the translation made by the hassen is more appropriate.
