Anna Banasiak: Pause In Hindi/Urdu Translation Poem by Ravi Kopra

viraam

dolan kursi pe jhooltay huay
coffee cup se peetay huay
main khawaaboN ki sair karti hoon

vicharoN main doobi hue
main apna casket kholti hoon
sangeet ki dhun radio se

is main aa smaati hai
mera setter kutta angDaaee leta hai susti ki
samaj jaata hai is garmi k lemhay ko.

Pause
Poem by Anna Banasiak

I drift off


to the room of dreams


swaying on the rocking chair


with a cup of coffee


I open my casket with imagination


music seeps gently from the radio


setter stretches lazily


grasping the moment


of this summer
