ANGUISH OF STAGNANCY : ENGLISH VERSION BY RAJNI CHHABRA. POEM ORIGINALLY COMPOSED IN NEPALI BY BIRBHADRA KARKIDHOLI
ANGUISH OF STAGNANCY
**************************
It seemed to me that
I will flow perennially in life
Like speed/ like stream
Then, I realized that
Life is over since long
Becoming vacuum, turning useless
Turn after turn-with every step
Don't even recall
On which turn of life
I had come across them
Parting and parting
Persists in life
Pang of separation
Waiting moment after moment
In these live moments
It seems, won't be able to reach sky
In a flight
Treading on these slopes and heights
Reaching destination immediately
Won't be possible
Life is full of turn after turn
What sort of turn will be last turn
So much anguish and pathos dwells in me
Others, too, might be facing the same in plenty
I am tolerating so much
Seems to me
Plenty of other beings
Might be facing same, as well
It seemed to me that
I will flow perennially in life
Like speed/ like stream
Ye overcome that stagnancy in some journeys. Belief is the rudder. 🌹
