Ravi Kopra Poems

My soul will merge into hers
when to my house she comes
as my bride for the first time
sitting in a carriage carried
...

main bhookha hoon teri awaz ka
teri twacha ka, tere moonh ka
chup chaap, bhookha, ghumta rehta hoon galiyon main
tere halkay pairon ki awaz ki talash main
...

oye, surajmukhi phool
samha se tum thak gaye ho
suraj ki har chaal gin rahe ho
sunehri mausam ki khoj main lag rahe ho
...

I go dreaming down roads in the evening
Emerald pine trees, green hills, dusty oak leaves!
Where does this road go to?
I keep singing, travelling into the far distance.
...

I feel queasy in these moments
When I feel like going, they stop me, these moments

When I feel like resting, they make me run, these moments
...

Vast freshwater mountain lake
surrounded by high green mountains,
a lonely man on a boat in distance sailing
under the vast open september skies;
...

Summer for coolness in Tunbridge,
away from humid Florida air,
for fun hiking on hills and
swimming nude in valley ponds.
...

Allah ne Akhtar Jawad ko bahut baDa mahankavi banaya hai
Allah ne jo kami ki thee usko Kumar Mahakul ne pura kar diya hai
uske dimag main gyan ghusa paDa hai
uska gyan dostoN ne farmaya hai
...

Among the hills
in the shadows of
green poplars in the meadow
we lie down in the cool breeze
...

A crazed poet improvising his poetry
Sees a pretty girl singing, begging on a shore
She is an orphan, no parents
She came here from no where
...
