At The Same Time, W.S Mervin's Poem In Hindi/Urdu Translation Poem by Ravi Kopra

jab hum bol rahay hotay hain
hazaaroN zubaanaiN hum ko sun rehi hoti hain
kuch bhi nahin kheteeN

jab hum darwaaza bund kar rahay hotay hain
parindoN k jhund aasmaan main uDtay hotain hain
sardi ki bhri roshni main

jab hun apnay signature maartay hain
to bahut kuch apna hum
kho baithay hain

jo kabhi wapis nahin aata

***


AT THE SAME TIME

While we talk
thousands of languaging are listening
saying nothing

while we close a door
flocks of birds are flying through winters
of endless light

while we sign our names
more of us
lets go

and will never answer
