Depuis sa création, Arabian People & Maghrebian World s’est fixé un projet, celui de parler, de présenter le monde artistique, culturel et littéraire du Maghreb et du Monde arabe et la Rédaction continuera dans cette voie qu'elle s'est fixée. Toutefois, nous avons décidé d’ouvrir une rubrique sur l’univers culturel d’autres contrées et, ainsi, présenter un portrait d’une personnalité ou un événement.
Aujourd’hui, « Clin d’œil » s'ouvre avec la poétesse iranienne Mehri Shah Hosseini dont la biographie ci-dessous -que la Rédaction choisit de publier exceptionnellement en anglais, de sorte qu'elle soit comprise par les lecteurs iraniens- présente l’impressionnant parcours de la poétesse.
Arabian People & Maghrebian World l’avait rencontrée lors du 4e festival international de Poètes à Paris qui s’est déroulé, dans la capitale française, fin septembre dernier. Sa poésie a reçu un accueil, notamment à l’Espace Le Scribe-l’Harmattan, des plus chaleureux chez les poètes participants comme Michel Cassir (Liban) ou Pierre Bastide (France) et un public de connaisseurs venu écouter les poètes. La musicalité de ses textes qui prennent pied dans les choses réelles (l'absence de l'époux, l'amour du fils, ...) fait que ce qui pourrait se percevoir comme une "poésie échotière" est transcendé par une texture des mots que la langue persane rend tout en profondeur. Et le regard limpide que Mehri Shah Hosseini porte sur l'univers des autres quand bien même serait-il douloureux, transforme ce dernier comme une sorte de renouveau, où tout n'est pas forcément gris...

Expérience
Pour te rencontrer
Il faudrait passer au fond de la nuit
Et moi,
Je jetterai l’anneau que je porte au pied,
En éprouvant l’audace
Qui n’existe pas en moi.
Où vas-tu ?
Je réside ici.
Viens à moi,
Pour entendre ma parole
Maintenant que tu ignores l’écho de ma sincérité.
Franchis les instants
Et tourne,
Tourne-toi tout doucement
De sorte
Que ton ombre
S’unisse à la mienne
Dans un coin tranquille du monde.

تجربه
برای ديدنت
بايد ازعمق شب گذشت
خلخال پايم را
دورمی اندازم
وشهامتی راکه درمن نيست
تجربه می کنم
کجا می روی
نشانی ام اينجاست
به اين طرف بيا
تا حرف هايم رابشنوی
حالاکه صميميت صدارا
ازمن گرفته ای
ارلحظه ها بگذر
نرمک نرمک بچرخ
بچرخ
آنقدر که سايه ات
با سايه ام يکي شود
در گوشه ی دنجی
ازجهان
برای ديدنت
بايد ازعمق شب گذشت
خلخال پايم را
دورمی اندازم
وشهامتی راکه درمن نيست
تجربه می کنم
