~Parijat~
Translation : Rajkumar Baral
Standing upon the termite-infested earth
all claims for my love and land
shall prove a boomeranging irony and
exaggeration upon myself!
How shall I express
dissent upon myself for not aspiring for a piece of land
dissent for my aversions to set defining limits
upon my mother’s love?
That moment,
when yokes of a viscous day and colorful illusions
had snapped in their own circumstances,
in their own temporalities,
I certainly must have piled defeats upon defeats,
I often forget to cash chances,
forget to accord them a meaning,
and forget to lend them a recognition,
Better ask me not—
Living life away is not an arduous task
it’s nor a hellacious history.
(This is translation of poem Juni Katnu – Ek Baji (“जुनी काट्नु–एउटा बाजी”) written by Parijaat.)
