Egypt
The presentminister of labor and Work, the past minister of industry , wealth, and water ; the Professor, the ambassador , butthe most important , the most famousdistinguished Saudi poet , above all the Man , May Allah helps him , Dr. Jhazi Al-Gosabi.
Al-Gosabi , the poet :
He is atraditional poet , he has serious trials in theart of the novel and the story , like ( the flat of freedom )and ( the majesty of the ambassador) concerning the poetry he has many collections like ( A battle without flag ) ,
( poems from the island of pearls), (The martyrs ), ( A voice From the Gulf ) and (the Garden of Sunset ) .
Here I remember what his teacher and the departed man of letters AbdAllah Ebn Mohammed Al-Taey in his book about ( Studies on the Arabian Gulf) when he said that " Al-Gosabi isamong these regeneratorsand when his collection ( poems from the island of pearls) was published hecalled him ( the new blood ) and he was really a new blood ".
He has about sixty books , the most famous oneis ( My life in Management ) .This book deals with his functional and professional life till his promotion as an ambassador inLondon .
From his poetry we can quote :
1-
When he addresses king Fahd Ibn Al-Aziz :
My lord, many hypocrite poems will be said,
And Oppression is always hated,
The hungry poor praisers have jumped and hurried ,
But if as youliked , it is most likely and beloved .
وتبسمُ يارا ..
فيرقص قوسا قزحْ ..
على مقلتيها ..
وينفلتُ الفجر من شفتيها ..
ويبسم حتى الجدارْ ..
وتضحك يارا ..
فيعلوا هديل الحمامْ ..
وتصدح فيروز للمستهامْ ..
ويكمل عرسُ النهارْ ..
وتعبس يارا ..
فقف يا نسيمْ ..
وغب يا ربيعْ ..
وضعْ يا فًرحْ ..
When Yara smiles
A rainbow happily dances
In her beautiful eyes..
And Dawn lightly escapes
away from her beautiful lips..
And even the wall
seems to smile ..
And when Yara laughs
the pigeons lightly coo and murmur..
And Fairooz sings and chants
For the beloved ..
And the wedding day seems
To be complete and full
With happiness and joy
But when she gets angry ,
The breezes stop to come .
And spring is sadly asked to depart
And joy is unhappily lost
And has no place
Finally, the famous Syrian poet ,Mohammed Al- Maghout , after Al-Gosabi ' s leaving London , said :
No talent passes without punishment " and added : "
"And no situation passes without price !"
