LONGING FOR IDENTITY
LONGING FOR IDENTITY
I remained less significant
Then a name scribbled with
Chalk-powder
On a wall.
Longing for identity
Whiteness that clung
With the fingers
That--was washed away.
Now, myself
Only remnant
In the frowning colony
Sometimes stagnant,
Sometimes flowing water.
Original Poem ' ASTITV KEE CHAH MEIN' in Hindi by Kavi Anurag
Translated into English by Rajni Chhabra
