آخرش

بارش برستی ہے

بجلی کڑکتی ہے

محبت سے لبریز بے لباس شاخیں

تاریکی میں رقص کرتی ہیں

زمین 

اپنے بنجر پن کو چھپانے کے لیے 

کوشاں ہے

جڑیں 

ہمارے سینوں میں راستہ بناتی ہیں

ہم تمںنا کرتے ہیں

اور ایک ساتھ ماضی کو یاد کرتے ہیں

 مخروطی پتوں سے بنی ٹوپی

ایک برساتی

اور آسمان سے کوندتی ہوئی بجلی

رات

قدیم مقبروں کے ساتھ لپٹ جاتی ہے

اس کا سیاہ پیرہن

ابھی تک درختوں میں الجھا ہے

چیزیں

ایک ساتھ نارمل ہو جاتی ہیں

اور ایک ساتھ

ان کی بازگشت سنائی دیتی ہے

آوازیں

ہماری گہری نیندوں میں جا بستی ہیں

اس بے پناہ خلفشار کے نتیجے میں

ہمارے خواب

ریزہ ریزہ ہو جاتے ہیں

پھیلتے

 اور گونجتے 

بارش کے بہتے ہوئے سرد پانی میں!

VARIATIONS ON A RAINY NIGHT

Rain comes at last

And thunder rumbles

Tender shoots strip naked in darkness

The land tries to hide its barren dryness

When roots feel their way into our chest

Together we desire

And together we recall

A leafy cone hat and raincoat or lightning across the sky

Night lies down with all the tombs

Its black shirt still hung in the trees

Together things cool down

And together things echo

The sounds get lost inside our deep sleep

Where countless upside-down dreams are shattered

In this cool, expanding, reverberating rain water.

(Translated by Nhat-Lang Le. Edited by Susan Blanshard)

BIẾN TẤU ĐÊM MƯA

Đã mưa

Và sấm rền vang

Những đọt mầm khỏa thân trong bóng tối

Đất cố giấu đi trơ trụi khô cằn

Khi cội rễ lần tìm trong ngực.

Cùng khao khát

Và cùng hồi tưởng

Nón lá áo tơi hay vạch chớp ngang trời

Đêm nằm xuống theo từng ngôi mộ

Chiếc áo màu đen còn mắc lại trong cây.

Cùng mát lành

Và cùng vang vọng

Âm thanh đi lạc vào giấc ngủ sâu

Đang tan vỡ bao giấc mơ lộn ngược

Trong nước mưa mát lành - phồng nở - rền vang.
