Ahmad Shiddiqi - An Essential Draft
3 Views • Nov 08, 2014
Description
its branches begin slowly
to grab sunken windmill
why all hope have gone?
a bared mountain moans
its stones begin tenderly
to scream to scars sun
why all love have flown?
a shy deer smiles
its ears begin graciously
to listen to Mermaid’s chant
why all dreams have disappeared?
O Africa!
strengthen me
with your dust
and green forest
O America!
lengthen me
with your store
and highways
O Australia!
toughen me
with your coast
and mountain
O Asia!
broaden me
with your river
and hospitality
O Europe!
widen me
with your castle
and amusement
there are no limit
friend or foe
blend into
melody
there are no barrier
love or hate
blend into
harmony
there are no block
dream or reality
blend into
symphony
(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Rajkumar Mukherjee)
