HE WAS BORN IN A SMALL VILLAGE BESIDE THE RIVER NILE CALLS PORTBELL
AL MAJNUUN
WORDS PASSED FROM ONE TO ANOTHER
IN THE PALACE OF THE GOOD STUDENT
HIS MEN WERE TALKING ONE SAID
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS I REMEMBER
MY FATHER TELLING ME ONCE
PEOPLE LIKE AL MAJNUUN NEVER DIE
ANOTHER SAID WASN'T AL MAJNUUN
ONE OF OUR LEADER'S MASTERS ?
A THIRD SAID YES HE TAUGHT HIM
BUT HE USED TO SPREAD HIS THOUGHT
BETWEEN THE LESSONS ...
THE GOOD STUDENT ENTERED WHEN
THEY SAW HIM THEY STOOD
THEY KEPT VERY QUIET ONE OF THEM
EVEN TRIED TO KILL A FLY ...
DUST
DON'T WORRY MY SON AL MAJNUUN
IS DEAD THE BUS DAMAGED
HIS HEAD IT
WAS HIS HEAD THAT MADE
THE STORIES ABOUT THE THE KEY
THE NEW DAWN AND HIS BELOVED
KINGDOM NO ONE OF US EVER HEARD
OF SUCH CRAZYNESS ....
A VOICE AMONG THEM SHOUTED OUT
MOVE MOVE FROM HERE BEFORE
THEY SEE US THEY RAN TO THE BUS
WHICH STARTED TO MOVE THE DRIVER
WAITED FOR THE LAST ONE TO GET IN
THE BUS MOVED BACK THEN TO THE RIGHT
SLOWLY AT LAST STRAIGHT
LIKE A TIGER
THAT JUST FINISHED EATING ....
THE BODY REMAINED IN ITS PLACE
COVERED WITH THE DUST
THAT
THE BUS LEFT BEHIND ...
CHILD
THE CHILD CAME BACK CRYING
HIS FATHER HOLD HIM AND SAID
WHAT HAPPENED MY SON ?
THE CHILD SAID TO HIS FATHER
ONCE WHILE I WAS PLAYING
THIS MAN CAME TO ME
HE ASKED ME ABOUT YOUR NAME
WHEN I TOLD HIM HE
SAID YOU ARE A COWARD ...
THE FATHER SAID TO HIS SON
DID I TELL YOU AL MAJNUUN LOST
HIS LIFE BECAUSE OF
HIS TONGUE ...
CHILDREN
ALL OF THE MEN OFFERED
THEMSELVES TO HELP
THEY CROSSED THE STREET
THEY FILLED THEIR HANDS WITH SAND
CROSSED BACK AGAIN
WHERE WAS THE BODY
IN FRONT OF THE BUS ?
THEY BEGAN TO WORK
THEY COVERED THE BLOOD
CLEANED THE WHEELS
ONE OF THE CHILDREN FROM
INSIDE THE BUS ASKED HIS FATHER
TO LET HIM GO TO SEE THE BODY
HIS FATHER REFUSED THEN AFTER
THE CHILD CRIED HE ACCEPTED
WITH ONE CONDITION HE SAID
GO HAVE A LOOK BUT
DON'T LOOK
AT AL MAJNUUN'S EYES
THE SATAN PARTY
THE GOOD STUDENT SAID TO THE
CHOSEN MAN TODAY YOU ARE
REBORN
YOU ARE A NEW MAN
YOU CAN START NOW
TELL ME
WHAT YOU WERE SAYING
ABOUT AL MAJNUUN
TELL ME ...
THE CHOSEN MAN SAID MY MASTER
YES WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
THE DEVIL ONE AND WE MENTIONED
HOW BY THE BLESSING OF GOD
YOU DISCOVERED HE WAS A MEMBER OF
THE SATAN PARTY
HE LOOKED BACK TO THE MEN
WHO WERE STILL IN THEIR LAST
POSITION AND SAID TO THEM
STAND, STAND UP WE ARE FORGIVEN
CHOSEN ONE
THE GOOD STUDENT MOVED VERY CLOSE
TO THE CHOSEN ONE HE PUT HIS HAND
ON HIS HEAD AND SAID LOOK AT THE
POOR FLY IT TOOK ALL MY ANGER
IT IS DEAD
STAND UP MY SONS
YOU ARE FORGIVEN
THEN THE GOOD STUDENT
OFFERED ONE HAND
TO HELP THE CHOSEN ONE TO STAND UP
HE STOOD UP CRYING ...
THE GOOD STUDENT TOOK HIM
TO HIS SOFA
AND ORDERED HIM TO SIT NEXT TO HIM
WHEN THE MAN SAT
THE GOOD STUDENT SAID TO HIM
FROM NOW ON
YOU WILL BE MY MAN
KNEES
SWEATING AND SHAKING THE MEN
RETURNED TO WHERE THEY WERE
STANDING,
AVOIDING LOOKING AT HIS EYES
LITTLE BY LITTLE
THE GOOD STUDENT BEGAN
TO COME TO HIS NATURE ...
WITH THEIR FINGERS THE MEN
APPOINTED ONE OF THEM
AND THEY PUSHED HIM IN FRONT ...
THE CHOSEN MAN SLOWLY FELL
TO HIS KNEES IN FRONT OF THE GOOD STUDENT
WHO WAS SPREADING
HIS HANDS IN FRONT OF HIM
ALL OF THE MEN
BEHIND FELL TO THEIR KNEES ...
AND THE FLY THAT WAS AROUND
SUDDENLY FELL TO THE GROUND
WITH NO SOUND
AND NO MOVEMENT
A TAIL
THE GOOD STUDENT MOVED
HIS LEFT HAND FORWARDS
AND PUT IT DOWN
ALL OF HIS MEN SAT DOWN
HE SAID
I HEARD YOU TALKING OF ALMAJNUUN
WHAT YOU WERE SAYING ?
TELL ME
THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER THEN
THEY KEPT VERY QUIET
HE SAID TO THEM
YOU KNOW VERY WELL
WHAT WILL HAPPEN
IF YOU DO NOT TELL ME
THE TRUTH ...
SUDDENLY HIS EYES BECAME YELLOW
AND THEY COULD SEE
A TAIL RISING FROM HIS BACK
THEY RAN TO THE DOOR
HE SHOUTED ON THEM
STOP STOP
FREEZE OR
I WILL BURN
ALL OF YOU
