mujhay kuch aisa lag raha hai
k meri kishti ab sagar ki gheraarion main
us badi cheez k saath lag gayii hai.
aur ab kuch bi nahin ho raha!
Kuch bhi nahin....sub khaamosi hai... sub lehrain hain...
- kuch bhi nahin ho raha? ya sub kuch ho chuka *
*hai
aur ab hum kharay hain, shaanti main, ek neyay jeewan main?
-tr. Ravi Kopra
from Robert Bly's English version of
a Spanish poem by Juan Ramon Jimenez.
*Oceans *
I have a feeling that my boat
has struck, down there in the depths,
against a great thing.
And nothing
happens! Nothing...Silence...Waves...
-Nothing happens? Or has everything hap-
pened,
and are we standing now, quietly, in new life?
