Ravi Kopra Poems

saaday majbooraN da koi haq nahin
ohday waalay saaday te ilzaam laga baithay hun
jo chahnday hun aapnay aap karday hun
saanu garibaaN nu jutha badnaam karday hun
...

Listen! Our love affair has gone too far
Treading on one way, he found many ways so far

Though the police did not ask hard questions
...

sun! ansi pyaar kaday baDat agay nikal aaey
hik rustay tay chaly saaN, so rustay nikal aaey

halan k police ne waday sawaal na pucHay
...

You who cry a lot
Do not know how to cry properly

Tell me what tears are for
...

-For RKS

gods govern the world
and our lives
...

Wherever I felt Godliness
I sacrificed myself
Whether it was Kaba
Or a temple of statue
...

Sippi

BaDay saaloN se vo tallaq main reh rehi hai
sundar dhang se thanday pan main akeli reh rehi hai
...

Kya matlab hai is ka
jab tum kehtay ho
tum zinda rehna chahtay ho?
...

Srangers in the bar are sipping their wine
I'm sitting here with parched lips waiting for my mail

I complained to that you I was tired
...

People disgraced me, the world wounded me
I got these presents after befriending you

I yearned and yearned for long for her
...
