The Tale of LiveDoG (17)

 

(Trilingual (English/Arabic/Japanese) version)

 

The boy stood in front of a religious institution on the outskirts of town.

The minaret of mosque quietly kept an eye on the mudbrick houses.

The school gate opened widely and invited the boy.

The boy swelled with hope and jumped into a new world.

حكاية LiveDoG (17)

 

(Trilingual (English/Arabic/Japanese) version)

(Translated from English version to Arabic by Google Translate)

 

وقف الصبي أمام مؤسسة دينية في ضواحي المدينة

أبقت مئذنة المسجد بهدوء عينها على المنازل المبنية من الطوب اللبن

فتحت بوابة المدرسة على نطاق واسع ودعت الصبي

انتفخ الصبي بالأمل وقفز إلى عالم جديد
