Gwerful Curses a Man for Beating a Woman
TRANSLATED from Welsh BY ZOE BRIGLEY
Into your chest, a sharp stone slides - slanted
down to split your sternum wide:
kneecaps shatter as hands try
to hold the spurting heart inside.
^
Gwerful laanat deti hai us aadmi ko
jo aurat ki pitaaee karta hai
Teri cHaati ki sternum ki haddi ko
ek teekha, muDa hua pathar cheer day
is ko khoob khol day:
teray ghutoN ki haddioN k tukDay tukDay ho jaaeN
jab tum apnay hathoN ko andar daal
dharaktay dil ko pakaDnay ki koshis karo.
