Title:Ecstacy
Poet:Amjad Babar
(Pakistan)
Translator:Mumtaz Husain
(USA)
In the realm of golden statues found,
Amidst gleaming silverware all around,
The scent of brass wafts through the air,
Whispering tales of an enchanted lair.
From the clutches of boredom's despair,
Weary from journeys distant and rare,
Consciousness wanes, carried away,
Yet your decision remains astray.
In a fairytale realm, a new place,
Where an empress yearns for a king's embrace,
Do not be confined, be not oppressed,
For the rules of tyranny are outdated, at best.
If on stormy nights, no raindrops fell,
And lightning's glow failed to dispel,
From the ancient ark, a trove of silver coins,
False promises would taint our joys.
Your golden statue, a trail of desire,
In the clasp of a diamond, a new fire,
Count not withered flowers,
Life’s decay,
But cherish the laughter of spring's bright display.
In absence, do not let spring's mirth pass?
Nor the tears that fell on your memory's glass,
For one soul mourned and shed their tears,
Upon the coffin that holds your yesteryears.
Let this poem paint a brighter scene,
Where freedom reigns and hopes are keen,
A tapestry woven with words sincere,
To uplift your spirit and bring it near.
