meri dastan-e-hasrat wo suna suna k roye.
mare azmane wale mujhe azma k roye.
koi asa ahl-e-dil ho k fasan-a-muhabat.
main use suna k royon wo mujhe suna k roye.
meri arzoo ki dunya,dil-e-natwan ki hasrat.
jase kho k aaj shadman thy,use aaj pa k roye.
teri bewafaon per,teri kaj adaon per.
kabhi ser jhuka k roye,kabhi moun chupa k roye.

This admirable gadget, when it is
Wound on a string and spun with steady force,
Maintains its balance on most any smooth
Surface, pleasantly humming as it goes…

jo beeti hai use dhurane main kuch waqat lage ga.
es ghum ko ek yaad bnane main kuch waqat lage ga.
neend to ane ko thi per dil pachle qase le batha.
ub khud ko be waqat sulane main kuch waqat lage ga.
us ka sath ub tanhai ko kerta hai or zeyda.

I met a genius on the train
today
about 6 years old,
he sat beside me
and as the train
ran down along the coast
we came to the ocean
and then he looked at me
and said,
it’s not pretty.
it was the first time I’d
realized
that.

Quite unexpectedly, as Vasserot
The armless ambidextrian was lighting
A match between his great and second toe…

Why did I dream of you last night?
Now morning is pushing back hair with grey light
Memories strike home, like slaps in the face;
Raised on elbow, I stare at the pale fog
beyond the window…

Got up on a cool morning. Leaned out a window.
No cloud, no wind. Air that flowers held
for awhile. Some dove somewhere…
