Anees Rahman Poems

Now I see you full, my love
As the moon, the Blue moon,
I thought, I did see you;
It was the moon, the Gibbous moon.
...

So come kiss me and say good night,
Before the moon goes full and bright,
The eye lids blinking envied peeps,
To see your face in charming sleep.
...

Father, hear, this is truth, I tried doing best,
Although it was like mountain-climb, with no ropes to rest,
By having started longing course, and then killed with hate,
The people whom I gave my sweat, had burned my dreams, my fate.
...

From fabrics torn, in ruin, she hail,
Above the deck, beneath the sail,
Above silent meadow, the sea,
Her frosty breath, in doom, she see.
...

Aged twelve…. in eighth class,
Fingers spread to some words.
Tried to rhyme with honey,
And piled them one by one.
...

Forgive me, for I have sinned, forgotten my debt,
For I betrayed you, closest friend, and your sweet longing trust,
Your curse befell my painful soul, and thunder strike my lust,
For they may kill and seek revenge, but not with hate, not yet.
...

Fireworks and celebrations, are aloft …
little Umaid stands shaken and frozen,
But a boy there lived, an innocent boy,
Not by the name of the frozen Umaid.
...

Loud shall the darkest days speak, tired and fed!
That there isn’t a truth in the word love,
For they had shed the tears in colour red,
Like blood from the heart of a dying dove.
...

Born in night to Dhore and Ghore,
Lots of roar he was to make,
Taught with those the best they had
Fought and won the best of bad,
...

Blind-
Help me son, help me daughter, help this old beggar,
Give a coin, give some water, help this blind creature.
Help this aged, come to aid, help this downcast blind,
...
