TRANSLATION

I crossed the shore of the Shatt al-Arab as you wished, and I kept you on my head (an Arab compliment). With every attack (or offensive) I felt death at the door, and I feel that I am at my last breath, and I sigh deeply.

Sign reads: "Shatt al-Arab", which is a prominent river separating Iraq from Iran. This is an obvious reference to the 8 year war with Iran. The crow is a regionally accpted symbol of an evil omen.
