Voice of vale!

On the bridge of Jehlum, where memories flow,

I stand by the banks  in June's gentle glow.

Under the chinar tree, with its branches wide,

I don my phiran, where tears can no longer hide.

Oh, Kashmir, once adorned with nature's grace,

Now stained by turmoil, a tragic, sorrowful chase.

Your lost beauty, a lament upon my tongue,

Echoing through valleys where once joy had sprung.

The Jehlum, once a mirror of serenity and peace,

Now reflects the pain, the struggle, the ceaseless lease.

But inserted the tears and the lingering despair,

Hope sprouts like wildflowers in the mountain air.

For Kashmir, my beloved, I weep and yearn,

Aching for the day when your beauty will return.

May peace descend upon your valleys, serene and pure,

And may your lost splendour, one day, be restored.

Under the chinar tree, I offer my prayer,

That your skies may clear, and your people repair.

Through the echoes of tears, may laughter resound,

And Kashmir's lost beauty, once again, be found....

MY LAST WORDS TO YOU.

Oh breeze, so metaphorical and free, 

Carry my plea, oh hear my plea.

By the sea, she stands alone, 

Amidst the vast expanse unknown. 

Her gaze fixed on the distant shore, 

Yearning for what lies in store.

Consonance sings a sweet serenade, 

Last love letter on dreams we laid.

Enjambment, a bridge of words, 

For emotions to flow like birds, 

From line to line, without a pause, 

A journey through poetic laws.

Echo undying, Verse to verse, 

Forever ringing, No need to rehearse.

Each step I take, draws me near, 

A path of stones, guiding clear.

Her heart's shore, fearless and clear.

Words adorned with symbols so fine, 

Red roses, passion that will forever shine.

A river of heartfelt desire, 

The quill's ink flows with fire. 

Words spill out in endless streams, 

A poet's heart, a writer's dreams.

Love, a testament so true, 

Consuming all like fire do.

The poet's pearl, my last words to you.

SOAR TO SKY! THE TENACIOUS.

 

 

Oh, how wonderful it is to be compared to an eagle,

soaring through the skies with grace and power!

It's almost as if I, mere mortal that I am, Possess the same majestic qualities as this king of birds.

Alas, as I sit here hunched over my table of books,

Pecking away at the pen like a frantic little sparrow,

I can't help but feel that the comparison is slightly misplaced. 

Nevertheless, I shall take comfort in the thought

That at least in someone's gleaming, limped and sparkly eyes,

I am as fierce and formidable as the eagle.

The poem presents the contrast between the narrator's aspirations to be majestic like an eagle and the reality of their mundane life. The narrator feels inadequate as they compare themselves to the soaring bird, yet they take comfort in the idea that someone might see them as equally formidable. This contrast highlights the human tendency to aspire to greatness, yet struggle to reconcile those dreams with the limitations of reality. The poem speaks to the universal experience of feeling small and insignificant in the face of our grand ambitions, but also finding solace in the thought that we are capable of more than we give ourselves credit for.

The poem also touches on the power of perception and how it can shape our sense of self-worth. The narrator finds comfort in the idea that someone sees them as fierce and formidable, even if they do not see themselves in that way. This raises the question of how much weight we should give to other people's opinions of us, and whether or not we should allow those perceptions to define our own self-image.

Furthermore, the poem highlights the value of embracing our own unique qualities and strengths. The narrator may not possess the same physical attributes as an eagle, but they have their own talents and abilities that make them special. It reminds us that we should not compare ourselves to others or hold ourselves to impossible standards, but rather focus on developing our own strengths and abilities.

In conclusion, the poem captures the internal struggle of balancing our aspirations with reality, the power of perception in shaping our self-worth, and the importance of embracing our own unique qualities. It reminds us to be kind to ourselves and to find comfort in the thought that we are capable of greatness in our own way.

 

When the Rain Falls

Amidst the pattering of the rain,

A dreary day, full of pain,

No sight of sun, no warmth, no light,

like a soul lost, in an endless night.

 

Each drop a reminder of a struggle,

A burden, a hardship, a constant juggle,

A reminder of a life so bleak,

Of a future that seems so weak.

 

As the clouds loom overhead,

A heaviness settles in like lead,

The weight of worries and fears,

Too much to bear, too many tears.

 

Each puddle, a reflection of the past,

A reminder of a struggle that lasts,

Like a soul trapped, in a cycle of pain,

A life of loss, with nothing to gain.

 

Yet in the midst of all this sorrow,

There's a glimmer of hope for tomorrow,

Just as the rain will eventually end,

So will this struggle, hardship, this trend.

 

And like the sun that will surely shine,

A life of hope, of joy, of love and divine 

Will emerge from the darkness of the past,

And a future brighter than ever will be cast.

 

 

So let the rain fall, let it pour,

Through the storm, we will endure,

And like a phoenix from the ashes,

With a renewed spirit, and clearer prize.

THE FEW, THE BRAVE.

 

The three hundred and thirteen "Suhaba ra*" in Battle of badr.

With horses scarce and swords so few,

They set out to fight, a valiant crew,

Their numbers small, their chances slight,

Yet they pressed on, with hearts so bright.

Their enemy loomed, a daunting sight,

But they stood their ground, with all their might,

For they had a purpose, a noble goal,

To save their faith, to save their soul.

In poverty, they marched ahead,

A vision clear within their head,

With God on their side, they knew they'd win,

And so they fought, with all their sinew and skin.

Their faith was strong, their trust secure,

In God they found their strength and more,

They rose above, their spirits high,

For with God's help, they'd touch the sky.

And so they battled, day and night,

Their hearts aglow, with hope and light,

Against all odds, they did prevail,

For they were champions, with God's tale.

Their story one of hope and will,

A tale of faith, that triumphs still,

For even in poverty, they found a way,

To rise above and seize the day.

THE INNOCENT BIRD

Once free, I roamed the sky,

With wings that carried me high.

A world of wonder, a life of bliss,

No cage, no chains, no tethered kiss.

But then one day, I met a man,

Who offered food with a gentle hand.

I trusted him, I had no fear,

For in my heart, there was no smear.

But as I sat upon his palm,

He locked me up in his realm.

The cage was small, the walls were cold,

My wings were clipped, my spirit sold.

I sang a song of freedom then,

Of skies that held me high again.

I cried and wept for what I'd lost,

My innocence, my bliss, my cost.

And yet I sang with patience too,

For in my heart, I knew it's true,

That freedom comes to those who wait,

Who persevere, who don't berate.

So with my voice, so sweet and clear,

I sang a song for all to hear,

Of tyranny and betrayal too,

Of beauty lost, and pain that's new.

I the innocent bird, with my pity voice,

Sang the song of tyranny, with no rejoice.

But still, i croon with all my might,

For freedom, for justice, for the light.

The poem "The Caged Bird's Song" is a poignant and powerful tale of the loss of freedom and the struggle to regain it. The narrator, a bird, describes the joys of flying freely in the sky, unencumbered by cages or chains. However, her life changes when she meets a man who offers her food and seemingly harmless affection. She soon finds herself trapped in a small cage, with her wings clipped and her spirit broken. Despite her suffering, she sings a song of hope and perseverance, refusing to give up on her dreams of freedom.

The theme of the poem is the struggle for freedom and the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. The caged bird's song is a symbol of the indomitable human spirit, which refuses to be silenced by oppression and tyranny. The bird's unwavering determination to sing her song, even in the midst of her captivity, is a powerful metaphor for the human struggle for justice and dignity.

The poem also touches on the themes of betrayal and innocence lost. The bird's trust in the man who captured her is shattered when she realizes that he has no intention of setting her free. Her innocence, once a source of joy and wonder, becomes a liability in the face of the man's greed and cruelty. Despite these setbacks, however, the bird refuses to give up on her dreams of freedom and continues to sing her song of hope.

Overall, "The Caged Bird's Song" is a moving and thought-provoking poem that explores the universal themes of freedom, perseverance, and the human spirit's capacity for resilience in the face of adversity. The poem urges us to never give up on our dreams and to keep singing our songs, even when the world tries to silence us.

EGOISTIC FATE

My total indifference and poverty, Where humiliation weighs

Heavily as a slab of concrete.

And the egos are waiting for the Promised advent of altruistic birds Without egoistic plumage

Longer than a day, hot, and far too large For their meagre contents.

On the branches of egoistic fate, Vultures of Simplicity ought to be present.

Observing people's attempts to give Their life some appearance of Significance, yet this stillness is gradually developing across the globe

Their egoistic fate is a bleached night.

Rich people's wings sweep my dignity,

And for a brief moment, they see

The poor as they fade into obscurity, Their heads bowed in defiance of

The sour wind of money.

The poem describes the struggles of an individual who faces poverty and humiliation, surrounded by a world driven by ego and materialism. It highlights the irony of people's attempts to find significance in their lives while neglecting the simplicity and altruism that could bring them true happiness. The poem explores themes of social inequality, the corrupting nature of wealth, and the importance of humility and simplicity.

The poem begins with the speaker expressing their sense of total indifference and poverty, describing the weight of humiliation as heavy as a slab of concrete. The world around them is driven by ego, and people wait for the arrival of altruistic birds without egoistic plumage, indicating that they desire selflessness and humility but are unable to practice it themselves.

The speaker notes that people's attempts to give their lives some appearance of significance are observed by vultures of simplicity, who could teach them the value of living a simple, humble life. Despite these observations, the egoistic fate of humanity remains bleached, indicating that the world is devoid of true meaning and purpose.

The poem touches upon the idea that the rich sweep the dignity of the poor and ignore their struggles, seeing them only for a brief moment before they fade into obscurity. The heads of the poor are bowed in defiance of the sour wind of money, indicating that they resist the corrupting nature of wealth and materialism.

In conclusion, the poem serves as a commentary on the state of the world, highlighting the importance of humility, simplicity, and altruism, and exposing the corrupting nature of wealth and materialism. It is a call to action for individuals to reject their egoistic fates and strive for a life of simplicity and selflessness.
