Today, I read a poem by Muneer Niazi, titled “Khawab Ki Kaifiat” (Feels Like A Dream). I liked it very much and decided to translate in English and share it with you.
Clouds have covered the entire sky
I have forgotten my home
I stepped out of home, something
Important to buy
After stepping out of home
I have forgotten my home
Now I’m looking for it
Unable to understand, how to look for it
A tree or two
Sometime, somewhere a known face
And a familiar building far away
Unable to understand
With such incomplete signs
How will I reach my home
Surrounding me, is a dream like feeling
And my heart is desiring to return home
What a lovely piece of writing this is. Very visual.
