About me

A mother, wife and civil servant, a conscientious citizen and patriot ----- my abiding love for books has made me try my hand at writing poetry, none of which is anything but the strictly spontaneous outpouring of a mind that prizes truth and harmony, above all else.

Hope ---(translation)

#PoetAtHeart

dil ko tabeer koi aur gawaara hi na thi
kulfat e zeest to manzoor thi har tawr magar
raahat e marg kisi tawr gawaara hi na thi
(Faiz)
no other philosophy did the heart accept
that life is strife was agreeable , but
it rejected the respite
that death begets
(trans ---pvks)
