In that night

(In that night) is a famous Sudanese song. I wanted the members to feel those who get the blow in the tank. Getting the blow in the tank is very dangerous. it means explosion and it means the end of life for some. Someone loved a girl and someone else married her. Please enjoy reading

In that night, it was not easy for me

I could not forgive you or blame you

You took all the wounds and the smile

I came to congratulate you and shake hands

I extended my hands without any talk

Because I could not stand in front of you

I came back blocking my tears

In that night,

the people are sharing your joy

I felt I was a stranger there and you are a stranger in my world

I really felt the meaning of separation

I saw the tears behind the eyelashes 

Suppressed by sorrow and loss

The trembling of that palm was saying goodbye

  • A sante sana Molemane! Thanks for pressing the like button.

  • Iyei, iyei Tam. Gokai! There was a misunderstanding. The respected lady, Svetlana and Roman thought that the matter was about war. War has nothing to do with that poem. When I used our public proverb, (hitting in the tank), it was only to show the severe pain that occurred due to that night. Thanks, Tam for your question on the blog. 

  • Oh, that is a painful song. I thought this phrase "get the blow in the tank" was related with war. What's the meaning of it?

  • Vanakkam Kosala! You are speaking about death which separates relatives and friends from each other. Thanks teacher for your meaningful comment on ( In That Nigh).

  • Arigato Tam! There is no war here at all. The guy used to love  a woman and she was married to someone else. Thanks ,Tam for your comment on the blog.

  • Nice writing Dara. Temporary happiness and joy covers the fact that separation was, is and will be there, as long as we are together. Doesn't matter whether it is a thing or a person, it's just a matter of time before that person leaves us or we leave that person. It happens inevitably with those who are very dear and near to us and for those who aren't.

  • Hi,dara. I can't grasp the situation a bit. Is this a song about going war and separation from a girl or one night stand while being drunk? Or something else?

  • Xie xie Allen! I hope you never feel pain in your life. Thanks for your comment on that poem. 

  • I like the way the Poet paints his/her emotional state in the piece.

    I could feel the pain via his/her words.

    I equally appreciate the down-to-earth diction. 

  • Filsuf Hayabusa! You are also a philosopher, Haya. I really like your short and nice comments. Thank you.
