Ahmad Shiddiqi - Fish Dialogues

2014-11-08 0

upon southern sea
moon is so bright
stars sparkle fair
foams are calm

fishes weave a long breath
circle and dive so tender
melt themselves into
a solid firmness

why all innocence waters
are gone and vanished?
turned to darkness?
and got pollution?

O men! wash away!
don’t mess up!
set us free!
we free you too

(dedicated to a great poet at poemhunter, Subroto Chatterjee)
