Akhtar Jawad Sleep Poems

Please, no more jokes,
I don't want to smile,
How can I smile?
My soul is grieved,
...

A sleep walker on the street,
He is wearing a thick jacket,
Something in his hands,
Is it a cell phone?
...

When I was standing,
it was standing with me,
when I was sitting,
it was sitting with me,
...

Intezar - Poem by Akhtar Jawad
Aana to tha sooraj ke sang, chand ke sang aa jao sathi,
Sara din to tadpa hoon main, sham ko na tadpao sathi,
Subah ka bhoola sham ko aaye to bhoola kahlata nahin,
...

Happy World Sleep Day to all my friends,
specially to the older ones who pass their day in snoozing,
and during the sound sleep at night,
break the grills of their old age,
...
