He 1 - An Erotic Poem By Max Temmerman In Hindi/Urdu Translation
Wo 1
Wo saans na le raha tha
uski twacha le rehi the
Main ek but ban kar
uski jhangoN main lipti hue the
Garmi ki dopahar main
sonay jaisi shaam dhal rehi the
aur purane wasiiatnaame ki tarah
us se sookhay ghas ki saugandh aa rehi the
Main ne kya iski koi parwah ki? Bilkul nahin
College ki cHe saal ki paDhai mein main seekh chuki the
aaraam se shanti ke saath apne aap sub seekho
bartan main doodh daal kar
aag se ubalay laga kar
is main khud ujlo, ublo.
He did not breathe,
his skin did that.
I entangled myself
with his laurel leaf,
heathenism.
He smelled of dried grass.
Old Testament gold
below a late summer sun.
What I thought to that? Nothing.
Six college years taught me
to be quietly self-educated.
To boil like milk in a skillet.
To yearn.
-Max Temmerman
