Naveed Akram Poems

Understand me now, how I arrange my life,
Why do I limp and clumsily speak to the only people
On the street?
The street is a wedding with the busy,
...

What is knowledge? What is wisdom?
My sight seeks a candle, with a flame,
And the eyes are finally better, it is
The candlelight of good shining quality.
...

Exactly, I am true, as the wise man said,
Returning to the bedroom when I was sleepy.
So true I was that I had lived a thousand facts,
Turning them over in my reality, like the Sun burns everyday.
...

I rank among the best of soldiers
Who fought on the frontline.
His soldiery is superior to mine,
But he was the Home Front.
...

Education I agree to in this country,
It endangers the body with more health,
Rather than doing harm it cares for the body
And the brain, and all that is in the heart.
...

The merriment spreads across the place,
Capturing like magnetic objects, this is the superior job.
One languid participant relaxes in the corner,
Like someone achy and without vigour of the party.
...

Gloom speaks in super ways,
It rides into a closet, and disappears.
Gloomy and dark, the room appears to lie
In a room, too dark and dank.
...

Some laugh at music and its devices,
They argue that it is a melody too sweet.
Fading from vision is the entire performance
As you sleep on your chair due to fatigue.
...
