A poem –
Has a date with me.
When pain sleeps easy
in my sinking pulse,
the pale faced moon
touches the horizon,
When day sinks into the sea,
the night is washed ashore.
In the twilight hour,
when the body retires,
and the soul breathes free;
A poem –
Has a date with me
(Translated from Urdu by Oriya poet, Dr. JP Das)
