I Will Return Home To My Darkness, A Urdu Ghazal By Parveen Shakir In English Translation Poem by Ravi Kopra
I Will Return Home To My Darkness, A Urdu Ghazal By Parveen Shakir In English Translation
Commending him to the moonlight
I will return home to my darkness
He will never know my heart's longings
It will cry with smiles in my eyes
He left and all the fun of friendship went away
With whom will I break up and with whom will I make?
Though our relationship has now no name
I will offer myself to him if he so indicates
I lay myself where the roses were
I will gather the ashes of my dreams when he awakes
He has skillfully charmed someone else
What song will I sing in my somber loneliness?
He would not tell me why he loves her
I will forget him someday, he said
I hear the dark callings of dense forests now
Never will I hear his voice again.
supurd kar ke use chaa.Ndanii ke haatho.n
mai.n apane ghar ke a.Ndhero.n ko lauT aa_uu.Ngii
badan ke karb ko vo bhii samajh na paayegaa
mai.n dil me.n rouu.Ngii aa.Nkho.n me.n muskuraa_uu.Ngii
vo kyaa gayaa ke rafaaqat ke saare lutf gaye
mai.n kis se ruuTh sakuu.Ngii kise manaa_uu.Ngii
vo ik rishtaa-e-benaam bhii nahii.n lekin
mai.n ab bhii us ke ishaaro.n pe sar jhukaa_uu.Ngii
bichhaa diyaa thaa gulaabo.n ke saath apanaa vajuud
vo so ke uThe to Khvaabo.n kii raakh uThaa_uu.Ngii
ab us kaa fan to kisii aur se manasuub huaa
mai.n kis kii nazm akele me.n gun_gunaa_uu.Ngii
[manasuub=attached]
javaz Dhuu.NDh rahaa thaa na_ii muhabbat kaa
vo kah rahaa thaa ke mai.n us ko bhuul jaa_uu.Ngii
[javaz=reason]
sama'ato.n me.n ghane jangalo.n kii saa.Nse.n hai.n
mai.n ab kabhii terii aavaaz sun na paa_uu.Ngii

Though it's difficult to capture the entire beauty in a translation but Ravi Kora has nicely managed it.
