Ravi Kopra Poems

To be a poet is like
to be a doctor, a lawyer, an engineer
you have to learn the tools of the trade.
Everybody has feelings that touch us
...

main ne bijli bund kar di
ek mome batti jala di
mohabbat ki halchal chala di
tu dressing table par khaDi thi
...

le li hai tu ne meri jaan
le liya hai tu ne mera dil
main doobi hue hoon tere pyaar main
thoDi darti hoon lakin khush hoon
...

"Death Is Meaningless For Pakistani Soldiers."

...

Teri aankhen mere dil k kante hain
dil main dard daltay hain
phir bhi main unay pyar karta hoon
hawa se bachata hoon
