naisaiku week 12

[ echoes of indian poetry - 5 ]

" dil- e -nadan tujhe hua kya hai
aakhir is dard ki dawa kya hai " ~ ghalib

my heart so unwise
but what is your affliction
WHAT CURE FOR THIS HURT
(for you are the affliction)
oh my naive .heart . ~ ghalib

~ nasaiku / translation / zg ..

life of confluence
a rock flows with the river
PARADOXICAL
a river flows with the rock
confluence of life
