The Word 'You' by Awila Parvin


The Word 'You'

It is you, not easy to read,
Many words are cultivated.
With the word 'You' and songs are composed,
And with many prisoners history is made.
Many people are brought for autopsy who are dead,
It is 'You' not easy to read.
In you there created cloud, rain, roar and storm,
Also flood, loves home, crops in some form.
Besides you, became a great space,
Is it easy, to read in your case?
Yet knowing and understanding all,
I wanna read you after all.
I want you to be main subject,
For colleges in the syllabus,
Both you and I will be an aspect.
And make a wonderful universe.

I Envy by Brixhilda Dede

 


I Envy

When the autumn leaves break,
fall from the branches into the vait.
Suddenly I get a chest pain, just like
melancholy.

The bareness of autumn trees,
Blue sky observes your eyes.
Your absence hurts and hurts..
Like a bone clearing on the wet.

Thinking becomes exhausting,
like wind or storm.
Merged with the golden ones hair,
under the emerald' s necklace,


Oh, I envy that idea.
The wind when it touches you.

When You Told Me That You Loved Me by Nguyen Thi Thuy Linh

 


When You Told Me That You Loved Me

The world will lose at least one word, one
expression
The night loses the meaning of night
It is the devoted burning of candles
I melt following its wax that lights my toes
And seeing outside darker and darker
A girl hides her face paved with broken bricks
A shadow of lonely soul runs over me scarily
A feeble kitty asks her mom for
breastfeeding in the reed
A bouquet of flowers has stopped breathing
on my hands
(Please let it breathe on the ground
Rather than being cut across the trunk for
romance)
Anyway, I am not as pellucid as a water drop
Do not put me higher than the petals
Somewhere in the forest of faith
Capturing the fellers
Let me reassure myself, let it grow green.

Your kisses sprinkle holy water on the
moonlight
I realize me indebted to the clouds not time
to light
Love takes a lot of breath in the universe
I just want to be as simple as insects
Love each other with the lyrics as lament
Making all whom not falling in love not to
disintegrate
Making darkness not to be thicker behind the
bright fire
Let blow out the candles and bury flowers in
a water vase!

I wish the world changes nothing when you
tell that you love me
So I lean on you and turn into a mint leaf...

Deviruma Priyatama by Muhammad Shamsul Huq Babu

 


Deviruma Priyatama

Thirty spring days have passed, yet I have not seen your beloved, magical face,


Where the familiar and unfamiliar beloved happiness of my heart is hidden.


How many days and nights have passed,

walking in groups among the stars,


Debiruma Priyatama, come to my broken little nest, my nose.


How many flowers bloom in hope, in love, in love?
Only the flowers of mourning of fallen leaves grow on my forehead.
Is the sight of a firefly shining in the light of the full moon written on my fate line,
Yet again and again, in the beauty of the desert, in the dew-soaked glow, who dreams?
You were my pursuit, flashing in the world, forgotten in the world?
All those events of mine will be written in the history of time.
Come and see me once, love me?
Nature will smile, the sky will cry, the birds will sing and rejoice.
I am waiting for hundreds of thousands of sorrows in the heart of the earth, extend your dear hand, a moment before death.
I will see you for the last time, wounded by my anger and passion.
If no one sees the waves of the river and the ocean in the apathetic fire wind, how can anyone understand?
The mountain springs dry up, yet they are tied to the arm.
When I sit in the desert, sitting quietly on the pole, and hear the sound of wailing?
I think of you alone and weave words in poetry.
In that thought torn apart by consciousness and pain, you are only you.
A scorched body of three and a half hands of soil scattered around.
Having tied a garland of prostrations, I went and left you like today.
People will say that you have become a hundred Indus in the world from a single point.

A Poem by Helen Pletts

 



A Peom

King and Queen on a Lily,
All our white cups brimming,
Sweetly-chiming at once.
We are languishing, beautiful,
in the simple bells.

Inconsequential doves,
Deep in the feather-soft,
Of the petals curve,
Even our feet and beaks curl.
One of us dresses in ruby.
One of us is pale and sleepy.
Although awake, the red blush,
Does not rush us. Time sits still,
Beside us, upright on a green stalk.

Biography

Helen Pletts is a British poet based in Cambridge, whose work has been translated into Chinese, Bangla, Greek, Vietnamese, Serbian, Korean, Arabic, and Italian. She is the English co-translator of Chinese poet Ma Yongbo.

Eternal Journey by Pamie Sandhu

 


Eternal Journey


I've woven the fabric of my life with joys and sorrows
The moments enjoyed making memories
Not looking for the lust of riches
But spending it worth for good deeds
Aging gracefully through each passing day
Reaching towards the final goals
Rejuvenating through the eternal journey so beautiful
Living in the tassels of time
Dust we are and to dust we shall return
Some dreams completed and some yet to be
Life's unending years still await
Oscillated between past and future
The truth remains that life and death walk hand in hand
Life will deceive one day for sure death will never
To live forever is not our decision
Final goodbyes are God's will.

Shining Volcano in Desert by Till Kumari Sharma

 


Shining Volcano in Desert


The rays of fire with flames.
To fly in the desert.
The yellow light in the desert flies like the conscious human beings.
Looking from the crowd, people are in confusion.
The fire and flames seem wonderful.
Nature has profound beauty.
In that beauty, the destruction and construction appear.
The cute flames often seem from underworld.
The desert is happy to be within volcanoes and lavas.
So nature is shining even in the desert.
