Melbourne 1993
Charbel has raised the Baini name
Holding the light of poetic fame
A genius in this art, we cherish with glee,
Roaring through the hearts of people like me.
Bringing song to our heart for 25 years
Endless words that fill our eyes with tears,
Love for his poetry, his poetry his wife
Brother of five and his family his life.
Able to cause earth and sky to meet
In a poetic world where none can compete,
Nothing makes me surer to say
If not for Charbel there would be no poetry today.
