Oh Drunken Sweet Wind! Just An Only Night Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Perfumed silky hairs and black eyes,
Exposing symbols of youth on skies,
Oh! Lovely wet winds, keep it hidden,
I know for you it’s nothing forbidden,
Welcome the beauty of a charming face,
Purified soul of the clouds with a grace,
The dance of lips is warming and exciting,
Allow the clouds to remain in sighting,
Don’t add fuel to the fired instincts,
It’s better to live with attired instincts,
Let the clouds hide the inverted cup,
The moon, the stars all I see high up,
Only pleasant showers, I cannot abide
All other things that clouds do hide,
How thirsty you are why don’t you drink,
Be humid and stop, let the clouds now blink,
Let the clouds shower a pleasure and delight,
Oh Drunken Sweet Wind! Just an only night!
