" "الناي يفضحُ جرحنا المنسيَّ . يفتح سّرنا للاعترافْ
الاعتراف بكل ما نخفي وراء قناعنا . كنا نحبُّ
كنا نحبُّ نساءَنا . كنا نصَدِّق ماءنا وهواءنا . كنا نخافْ
...كنا نخافُ نهاية الأشياء فينا عندما كنا نشبُّ
كنا نشبُّ على الخرافة . باسم مَنْ نهدي ونرفع حلمنا
هل حلمُنا ’ يا ناي ’ كنزٌ ضائعٌ
أم حبل مشنقةِ؟
