In this episode, you’ll learn to talk more about your city, or the city you are visiting and learn how to describe a few places in your "medina".

You will be able to use some direction prepositions while talking about various "amakin" 

In this last part I will share a few lines from a beautiful piece of Nizar Qabbani’s great poem “This is my Love .. This is my City.

هــَـــذهِ هــِــى حــَــبــيـــبـــتـــى .. هــَـــذهِ هــِــى مـَــــديـــنــــتـــــى .. 

This is My Love .. This is My City ..

أبــْـــحــَــــثُ عــَــن مــَـــديــــنـــةٍ 

I look for a city

نــَـــكــْـــتــُـــبُ مــَــا شــِــئــْــنـــَـــا عــلــى جــُــدْرَانــَـــهـــَـــــا 

That we write whatever we want on its walls

مــَــديــنــةٌ تــُـــحــَـــرِّضُ الــزِّلــزالَ فــى دَاخــِـــلــِــنـــَــــا 

A city that stirs the earthquake inside us

تــُــدهــِـــشــُــنــا .. تــَــخــُــضــُّــنـــا .. تــُـــقــْــلــِــقـــُـــنـــَــــا 

Surprises us .. frightens us .. worries us

مــَـــديــنـــةٌ لا تــَـــقــْـــمــَـــعُ الــحــُـــبَّ .. و لا الــشــِّــعــْـــرَ 

A city that does not suppress love or poetry

و لا تــَـــقــْـــمــَــعـــَـــنـــَـــا 

 And suppress us not

أبــْـــحــَــــثُ عــَــن شـــَـــوَارِعَ ضــَــيـــَّـــقــَـــةً تــَـــبـــْــلــَـــعـــُـــنـــا 

I search for narrow streets that swallow us

عــن مــَــرْكــِــبٍ مــُــغــَـــامــِـــرٍ 

(I search) for an adventurous boat

يــَـــأخــُـــذنـــَــــا لــَـــيـــْــــلاً .. و لا يــُـــرْجــِـــعــُـــنـــَــــا 

That takes us at night and never gets us back

 أخــْـــتـــَـــارُ مــَــنــْــــفـــَـــاى كــَــمــَـــا يــُــعــْـــجــِــبــُــنــِـــى 

I choose my exile as I like

و أصــْـــنــَـــعُ الــزَمــَـــانَ و الــمــَــكــَــانَ 

And create the time and place

أخــْــتــَـــارُ دَوْمــَـــاً جــَـــانــِـــبَ الــقــَـــصـــِــيـــدة 

Always choose the side of the poem

و جـــَـــانــِـــبَ الإنـــْــــســـَــــان 

And the side of man

أبــْــحــَـــثُ عـــن زاويــةٍ صــَــغــيــرة فــى مــَــطــْـــعـــَـــم 

I look for a small angle in a restaurant

تــُـــصـــْـــغــِـــى إلــى حــِــوَارِنــَــا 

That listens to our conversation
