Aftab Alam Poems

Loveless life is like a dessert,
Wooful life is a dream oasis
Never let love die,
Love—a gift by the heaven,
...

She came as a bright dove in his reckless life,
From heaven; gliding and floating and flying,
And he, turned so sweet, thrown tongue of knife,
...

Soul enjoys the love.
And body, both;
Lust and Love,
Because love with dust is lust,
...

Kaise kah dun ki pyar karta hun
Tirchhii najaron se jo mai darta hu
...

My beloved;
If I were a bird
I would have come to dear
If I were calm breeze
...

Autumn cries for the spring
‘O' youth, only once you sing
The song in a life time
Then goes forever
...

One sage who strolled in the public
Singing heavenly song, magnetic song
Hung sacks on his shoulders, the grain sack
Whole day he roamed and prayed and sung
...

Fear is the shadow of love
As long as we seek bodily love
When love becomes spiritual
Shadow flies with Dove
...

I am not worried but wearied
Water of dust is about to dry
For I breathed the golden dust
Of the morning sun, I don’t cry
...
