ΤΟ ΦΩΤΕΙΝΟ ΜΥΑΛΟ ΤΟΥ ΑΡΑΒΙΚΟΥ ΚΟΣΜΟΥ

ΑΒΕΡΟΗΣ

[Αμπού αλ-Ουαλίντ ιμπν Ρουάντ]

Άραβας γιατρός, νομομαθής  και φιλόσοφος. 

Μελέτησε σε βάθος τον Αριστοτέλη και έκανε 

εμβριθή σχόλια πάνω στο έργο του.

Στα πονήματά του επιχείρησε σύζευξη της αραβικής

με την αρχαιοελληνική φιλοσοφική παράδοση.

Τα βιβλία του μεταφράστηκαν στα λατινικά και 

είχαν μεγάλη διάδοση στον κόσμο των λογίων

του Μεσαίωνα. Από αυτά γνώρισε ουσιατικά

η Δύση το έργο του Αριστοτέλη.

Μνημονεύουμε τον μεγάλο Άραβα διανοητή σήμερα,

επέτειο του θανάτου του το 1198, σε ηλικία 72 ετών.

 ΑΡΙΣΤΟΤΕΛΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΑΒΕΡΟΗΣ

I was like you and yes you were like me

We were so much alike but unique as can be

Friends til the end and we were quite the right team

Like those two men Aristotle and Averroes

It was a cold evening near the end of fall

That we made our aqaintance for nothing at all

But the common interest to make melodies

And little did we know the fine friends we would be

At first you spoke little and I said a lot

But in time you would trust me with the depth of your thought

And though we were only young men at the time

We had souls of the ancients with the youth left to climb

I was like you and yes you were like me

We were so much alike but unique as can be

Friends til the end and we were quite the right team

Like those two men Aristotle and Averroes

I was like you and yes you were like me

We were so much alike but unique as can be

Friends til the end and we were quite the right team

Like those two men Aristotle and Averroes

I was walking down the road many took

Studied all the classics learned all the great books

But I listened to the inspiration inside of me

And expected the least but had the courage to see

There was a time when the world didn't know

The way you could make a song from just a few notes

But never did you imagine, never did I

That with difference and some brilliance we'd come back to life

I was like you and yes you were like me

We were so much alike but unique as can be

Friends til the end and we were quite the right team

Like those two men Aristotle and Averroes

I was like you and yes you were like me

We were so much alike but unique as can be

Friends til the end and we were quite the right team

Like those two men Aristotle and Averroes
