~*~*A BOY*~*~

IT IS THE POEM OF BROKEN DREAMS AND POVERTY.NOT READ IT WITH YOUR EYES.READ IT WITH YOUR HEART.

Poet:-IBN E INSHA

Translated by Muhammad Ahkam.

English version:

~*~*A BOY*~*~

I remember those days

when I was a little boy,

I went to a see the fair,

rocking and jumping with

joy,

Everything seemed so

eye-catching,

But I had no money,

Nothing I could buy,

I returned home with a

heavy heart,

Filled with hundreds of

unfulfilled desires,

I remember the day when

I was a little boy

Well, those days of my

deprivation have gone,

Today, with the same

pomp and show, The Fair

is on,

Today, I can bye, each and

every shop,

Today I can purchase the

entire world,

I have no apprehension at

all,

But, the lttle boy is no

more thereb

URDU VERSION:-

~*~*Aik Larka*~*~

Aik chota sa larka tha

main jin dinoo.n

Aik mailey main

pohancha humakta howa

Jee machalta tha aik aik

shaiy per magar

jaib khaali thi kutch moul

lay na saka

lout aaya leye hasratain

sainkaroo.n

Aik chota sa larka tha

main jin dinoo.n

Khair mehromiyoo.n k wo

din tu gai

Aaj maila laga hay usi

shaan sey

Aaj chahoo.n tu ik ik

dukaa.n moul loo.n

Aaj chahoo.n tu sara

jaha.n moul loo.n

Narasaai ka abb ji main

dharka kaha.n!

Per wo chota sa, alhar sa

larka kaha.n?
