Limerick R4 (Hindi) Old Man From Peru

Rating: 5.0

There was an old man from Peru
who dreamed he was eating his shoe.

He awoke one dark night
from a terrible fright

to discover his dream had come true.

—by Michael R. Burch



पेरू देश की बात जहाँ पर एक बुज़ुर्ग रहा करते थे,
सपनों में वह अक्सर अपने जूते खा जाया करते थे,

इक दिन सन्निपात में,
वह जगे अँधेरी रात में,

देखा अपने ही जूतों को वो मुंह में दाब कचरते थे.

(अनुवाद/ रजनीश मंगा)
