Naveed Akram Poems

Never in a year does a star
Misshapen the globe,
The war is on, the wars have begun.
...

The house is many-storeyed,
Its flavour is tasty, like the snow.
May you live in this building
For all eternity, just to be unique
...

A great oak greeted me, with eyes glinting momentarily,
Joining us in the church, the pews soon were filled;
Hoping to achieve the best results, an axe was used
For the benefit of churchgoers, for their benefit.
...

Open a hand to the level of mine,
Exert it fully like the created line.
Bestow your liking for them,
And anger must never damn.
...

Then the reality strikes you in the head
And the heart has complained
Due to pain and suffering, mighty feelings.
This heart commands our hearts
...

She is an iron lady of dropping metal,
Inside the brain easy is the stain too vivid.
It succeeded for the mind became solid and well,
Mentality stood firm in abundant health.
...

The rules are broken when games are played,
Rules mean absence of the rules, as they are afraid.

I have aid for the players when I expect them to try,
...

Food is of geese, blood and guts,
Under this river of blood and ancestry.
Friendly relationships come forth when adjusted
By the food granted by the authors of books
...

One fine day I understood him as a book
To be opened by the pages or the pages;
If from far off lands a word bespoke
I was to swear my allegiance to a god of stone.
...
