Arabic and Persian/ Kurdish and Latin too

 Fiat lux ©


Michael Casey


Fiant lacrimae meae verba mea


Lucerna lux sit oculi mei


Flores in flore sint labia mea


Odor eorum sit sanguis meus


Sit ventus spiritus meus


Sit modus est nubibus


Risus infantium spes mea sit


Gemitus viduarum conscientia mea sit


Orationes extraneae sint mihi deliciae


apes mea sit sapientia


Ligna mea sit fortitudo


Patientia mea perveniat ad astra


Me semper in orationibus tuis memorem esse


Let There Be Light ©

By Michael Casey

Let my tears be my words

Let the candle light be my eyes

Let the flowers in bloom be my lips

Let their scent be my blood

Let the wind be my breath

Let clouds be my mood

Let children’s laughter be my hope

Let widows’ sighs be my conscience

Let a stranger’s prayers be my delight

Let the bees be my wisdom

Let the trees be my strength

Let my patience reach to the stars

Let me be always remembered in your prayers


ب أن يكون هناك ضوء ©


بقلم مايكل كيسي


دع دموعي تكون كلماتي


دع ضوء الشمعة يكون عيني


دع الزهور المتفتحة تكون شفتي


لتكن رائحتهم دمي


دع الريح أنفاسي


دع الغيوم تكون مزاجي


دع ضحك الأطفال يكون أملي


فلتكن تنهدات الأرامل ضميري


دع صلاة الغرباء تكون بهجة لي


دع النحل يكون حكمتي


دع الأشجار تكون قوتي


دع صبري يصل إلى النجوم


اسمحوا لي أن تذكر دائما في صلاتك

yajib 'an yakun hunak daw' (C)

بگذار اشک هایم حرف های من باشند


بگذار نور شمع چشمان من باشد


بگذار گلهای شکفته لب من باشند


بگذار عطر آنها خون من باشد


بگذار باد نفس من باشد


بگذار ابرها حال و هوای من باشند


بگذار خنده کودکان امید من باشد


بگذار آه های بیوه زنان وجدان من باشد


دعای یک غریبه مایه لذت من باشد


بگذار زنبورها حکمت من باشند


بگذار درختان قوت من باشند


بگذار صبر من به ستاره ها برسد


در دعاهای شما همیشه به یادم باشید


Bila Ronahî Bibe ©


Ji hêla Michael Casey ve


Bila hêsirên min gotinên min bin


Bila ronahiya mûmê çavên min be


Bila kulîlkên şîn bibin lêvên min


Bila bêhna wan xwîna min be


Bila ba bêhna min be


Bila ewr bibin haya min


Bila kenê zarokan hêviya min be


Bila axînên jinebiyan bibe wijdanê min


Bila duayên xerîban kêfa min be


Bila hingiv aqilê min bin


Bila dar hêza min bin


Bila sebra min bigihîje stêrkan


Bila her tim di duayên we de bi bîr tînim


با ڕووناکی هەبێت ©لەلایەن مایکل کاسیەوە


با فرمێسکەکانم قسەم بن


با چرای مۆم چاوم بێت


گوڵەکانی گوڵاوی لێوەکانم بن


با بۆنەکەیان خوێنی من بێت


با هەناسەم بێت


با هەورەکان مەزاجم بن


با پێکەنینی منداڵان هیوای من بێت


با ئاهی بێوەژنەکان ویژدانم بێت


با دوعای نامۆیەک دڵخۆشیم بێت


با هەنگەکان حیکمەتی من بن


با دارەکان هێزی من بن


با سەبرم بگاتە ئەستێرەکان


با هەمیشە لە دوعاکانتان یادم بم


I hope I've cut and pasted these correctly

Arabic/Persian/Kurdish is on the other side of the page


Anyway

May Peace be Upon the World especially now

Too easy to totally destroy it

Just for Man's Vanity

instead of doing things for God's Glory

Happy Persian. New Year

Happy Persian New Year

It was just on the TV, so Happy Persian New Year here is an Omnibus of mine to read

Nearly 1,000,000 Words in English plus my Comic/Dramatic Novel

The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker

4600 pages or so, 10 or 11 books of mine

In return you can pray for me Once a day, Pray too for Jimmy Carter who is having Hospice Care at Home, He’ll be meeting God very soon

We have Iranians neighbours down the road, they own fast food places

They are very kind, and I met a Persian at Pharmacy near my doctors a few months ago

So hello again, if you want more Stories, just email michaelgcasey@hotmail.com I didn’t get anything before. And I’ll never be famous, but I did make you laugh. I’m just a FOOL with no power, but I can make people laugh. Do you think God will let me into Paradise if that is all I can do?

Published by michaelgcasey

I've updated this 18th March 2022 I'm Michael Casey from Birmingham England, the fat silver haired writer in shades. Beware of Others with the EXACT SAME NAME, they are not me, and would not want to be me ... use Google UK to find me, otherwise Posh Americans pop up I've done loads of writing, about 2,000,000 Words worth over 34years now But before I started to write, I LISTENED to BBC Radio 4 for 20 years, from the age of 10 or younger Frank Brown our lodger, went back to County Tyrone and he gifted us his Bush Radio. He'd be nearly 100 now if he is still alive, so say a prayer for him 54 years in love with words, and I still look so dashing. I have a picture in the attic, just like Dorian Gray I've also had an interest in Politics for 54 years with my dad heckling the tv and Politicians. I almost immediately had a hit, a play called Shoplife was accepted but not finally produced by a Theatre. The Kenneth More Theatre, so thank them for sparing you all. This was back in 1989 yes, 30 years plus ago, the play was written in 1988. So since then I'm more than good enough, as a writer. Anything else..... I also ignore those who just cannot write, pick your own candidate I tend to write Comedy as I'd rather make you laugh than cry I have written over 2000 short pieces of writing, yes 2000 " (c) by Michael Casey" If you include "chats" 3700 samples, all told, the chats do NOT go into my books when I compile them. My first book ,a full length comedy/drama is The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker You can read translations of it here on this site Up to 20 different languages/translations have been read on the same day via this site, here on Wordpress look fo Translations Galore page, and more And in over 90 Countries world wide too so you have no excuse, find your own language and read The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker or Quick Stories or any other of the books in Translation on my Wordpress This proves to me that the humour does travel I have readers in over 100 countries now, just to repeat myself From Nepal to American Samoa and all places North South East and West Or its just a hit man on the run, or whatever Unknown Region Means It may also mean that only non English Speakers like my stuff Coverage but lacking penetration as marketing folks might say I did get 21,000 readers in 3 weeks for the Polish version of In Search of an Indian Princess. which is basically the final 3 chapters of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker all by word of mouth. And 50,000 plus in Christmas week 2021 If you add up all the downloads from my Wordpress + 13,000 when somebody stole the file. I have had more copies than Boris Johnson's Churchill book distributed. Maybe 40,000 copies . Not made a penny from it, free downloads in multiple languages. Reverse Logic, if the world knows me, eventually somebody will pay me But in reality I'll be dead first, and then just 2 pennies to pay the ferryman is enough I've cut the Plaudits, you can read/decide for yourself As for my life, I was born in the shadow of a Brewery, I was a computer operator for a market research company into alcohol sales, 21 years altogether, StatsMR Call centre guy, like everybody once in their life I was also a Trainee Betting Shop Manager I was a concierge and 10 other roles at Crowne Plaza NEC Birmingham for 3 years. Spent 3 years at Pinsent Masons Law firm in Birmingham I even hid a copy of my comic novel "BBU" in the Law Library at Pinsent Masons, well just for a day.. I did a few other jobs too, working life in reverse so to speak and I was an Esol English teacher in an Islamic school, for a year, I knew I could teach. I got Excellent, Excellent and Exemplary on the external assessment, yes really And I asked them to pray for me at least once a day beside which I've had a Shanghai connection for 20 years now, including 2 bilingual daughters and being a hausfrau a long time too, I'm a great dad, as I've had lots of time with my daughters I can always make somebody talk or laugh I believe my short stories could be used to teach English, just package them up correctly or App them Or a Tale a Day from Michael, a story telling App What else, I was brawn and brains, I used to be as strong as an Ox, now I just smell like one We have a cat called Totoro, my daughters wanted a pet I said they could have a dog if I died , or a cat if I had a heart attack. A few weeks after that in Jan 2015 I had an Unplanned Quadruple Heart Bypass , it was supposed to be a triple but it ended up a Quadruple, 33% extra free so to speak. Now with an add on Hernia, the size of your fist, pushing through my bypass scar, it hurts when I laugh, so don't make me laugh I also have arthritis and other hindrances that hobble my body and give me pain galore. But my mind is free, though having read my stories you may wish I didn't bother But I'll ignore you, and carry on regardless. I do get heckled by my own Tinnitus these past 3 years+, so I have music on all night long to drown it out. I sleep with Miley, Taylor, Eric Clapton and Will Young, maybe I should buy a bigger bed, or just get a better mattress. Tinnitus is a curse, just trust me I know, each day I wake up, Tinnitus SCREAMS at me for a full hour till it calms down That's the end of the tidy version of my life To finish here's the list of my 20 books, so far:- 1.The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker 2.Shoplife 3.Essays and Plays 4.Blogs 2011 5.300 and Not OUT 6.Shorts 2013 7.More Shorts 2014 8.Quick Stories 9.Still Alive 2015 10.Undiscovered Words 2016 11.Still Smiling 2017 12.Altogether Now 13.New Horizons 14.14 Up 15.15 Down 16.Sweet Sixteen 17. 17 Again 18. 18 New Views 19. The Final Cut of the 19th Hole 20. 2020 Words 21. 21 Door Keys, key to the door 21 on Bingo, hence title, 53,000 words so far I write bullet point stuff mainly now as Tinnitus stops me from getting in the zone to write, story stories. (c) by Michael Casey stuff though my bullet points are better than some "writers" discuss, miaow. That's why I dream of a speed typist, so I could dictate from the sofa https://www.amazon.co.uk/Michael-Casey/e/B00571G0YC to buy ebooks Loads of Korean and Arabic translations downloaded from my Wordpress, 1000s of them Quick Stories in Korean is a big hit. Maybe Kim in North Korea should read my books, instead of wasting his countries resources on what? Just keeping one person in power, him? Instead of joining the real world and opening a string on golf courses. That way we could get rid of Trump too. Into the sunset, as they play golf. Tears for a Butcher will be the sequel to BBU, and it too will be 600pages, however I really need a speed typist to put it down, while I sit and dictate like Barbara Cartland, and hopefully my speed typist would be impressed. we'd marry have half Korean kids, and form a Kpop band with our 4 new kids, with me as manager. And yes this is more for my bucket list, as Tinnitus keeps me awake too much, 6 months of not sleeping till dawn is really killing me Michael Casey aka the fat silver haired writer in shades from Birmingham England https://2.gravatar.com/avatar/efda2dca0de5b9269191b7c8b0102473?s=400&d=mm
