/ By Millu Sham’s
An eminent Poet , Najim Hiqmat said ,
A premonitory sign of twenty century
Causing wonder draw to an end of deviation.
Hiqmat , you have had concentrate that as a whole in a sound mooringness
how to bite differential dimension.
Change the decoy of chained reflex wisdom .
You know , infinity judicious trite breadth and width
There mourn , rowdies count – depth and measurement .
We know you were very attentively attested of such scenario
in this state of dilemma of such mooring until now going ahead
starry icon’s-
in a blink of eyes, figurative personality jump to pay –
Homage to attain in condole. But the signify of safe anchoring
contrary stand by there too –
flame of ashes flare up across the country
mind dug fire sprinkle like volcano
odd roller sounded like ordinal tone
Najim Hiqmat , on twenty first century’s murky may have changed
but can not change oppose obstinate .
justice woodman’s are traditionally still as before
Khudiram Bashu if walks on the street
upright toady they would show airy hankies
by misanthrope jubilate.
Translated by Poet Syed Rafiqul Alam
