    IT'S ME SHE LOVES - A 21 Hausa Haiku Love Story

    ...by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip."

     Translated 

    1

    Beating Heart sends love

    To every nook and cranny

    Of a lover's soul.

    2

    She is my girlfriend

    Chose I from thousand others

    As her eyes soother.


    3

    Sadness envelopes

    He who lost the contest

    Fought between two hearts.


    4

    She loves you not bit

    So take heart, go search elsewhere

    Her love has found home.


    5

    Don't be heart broken

    Nor you be sad, dejected

    I'm her chosen one.


    6

    Challenged to flower

    You failed to blossom, Su'Ab

    What costly mistake.


    7

    Telling bunch of lies

    Catwalk in borrowed feathers

    Crumbled spells you fly.


    8

    A proud nobody

    Clear as day, none is in doubt

    You are but a crow.


    9

    She is on to you

    Go on spread your calumny

    No fruit bears deceit.

     

    10

    What a dishonor

    Think you women are all fools? 

    Well, do count her out.


    11

    Go, seek another

    Best befitting of your class

    She belongs to mine.


    12

    This celebrations

    Is fit only for kings, queens

    Not for their subjects.


    13

    She's given full pledge

    Crowned me her heart ruler

    The war is over.


    14

    Swear your evil oaths

    Even bite on a liver

    Sad end is your spells


    15

    Sands of pure horror

    No child dares play on it

    Best abandoned to waste.


    16

    City destroyer

    Hale storm of stones not of ice

    Murderer of hearts.


    17

    You call on your Lü

    She supplicates "Lahaula..."

    Child to raw 'Kili.


    18

    We, tandem with peace

    Bedspread of silk and saffron

    Green, comforting, lush.


    19

    Blissful and blessed

    Twins birth, a dozen of them

    Each one named Khalid.


    20

    Precious, pure, raw gold

    No one weighs you as a joke

    Valued then and now.


    21

    A sound woman

    Is but paradise on earth

    Even better, there.
