Nazmul Haque Poems

How one can decide how my day will pass,
with a smile,
How the joy of my whole day
I must seek in the whiteness of her eye.
...

Whoever goes wherever,
but I will be right here,
The moon in the sky, the lotus in the pond,
what is so much fair.
...

(Me and my friend's house
and the 'khir nodi' in between,
I wish I could fly to there,
but God just did not give me the wings.)
...

Until you've felt the pain,
You haven't been truly in love.
Until you've felt the bliss,
You haven't yet truly cried.
...

Don't stay away, so far away, my dear-
Just take a look into my empty eyes
And hold me tight with the string of love
Deep inside your heart...
...

I am the only one of yours
Don't you understand
In in a firy sunny day
I'm the cool shadow
...

Too much lonely am I -
Like my own shadow,
Like the eternal emptiness,
Like a tree standing alone,
...

There is no need of poetic ecstacy,
Poetry, I say good-bye to you
Coz when Hunger shows its ugly teeth
The world seems out of rhythym,
...

Look, who is calling me from deep within,
Ya, its my dear God.

So long forgetting my own address,
So long searching for my own shadow,
...

The Constitution is unclothed,
The Supreme Court is turned
into a notorious brothel house,
Justice is crying like a naked prostitute,
...
