The Early Departure

By Abdulwahid Lu'lu'a

These are selected poems of the eminent modern Iraqi poet Badre Shākir Al-Sayyāb (1926-1964) who developed a modern style in writing Arabic poetry, which soon became popular in modern Iraqi and, by extension, Arabic poetry. Though a couple of his poems were translated into English and French, this is the first time that such a collection of his poetry has been translated and published.
