( AKHTAR UL IMAAN )
“ MAN ALSO FACES
INDIFFERENCE FROM TIME “
…
TO THIS THOUGHT , I AM ADDING A
SMALL POEM OF URDU POET AKHTAR UL
IMAAN......
“Shaam
hoti hai sahar hoti hai ye Waqt-e-ravaan
Jo kabhii Meray sar pe sang-garaan ban ke giraa
Raah mein Aayaa kabhi meri Himaalaa ban kar
jo kabhii ukdaa banaa aisaa ki hal hi na huaa
Ashq ban kar meri Aankhon se kabhi Tapakaa hai
Jo kabhi Khoon-e-jigar ban ke mizshgaan par aayaa
Aaj bevaastaa yuun Guzaraa chalaa jaataa hai
jaise Me kashmakash-e-zeest mein shaamil hi Nahin”
Jo kabhii Meray sar pe sang-garaan ban ke giraa
Raah mein Aayaa kabhi meri Himaalaa ban kar
jo kabhii ukdaa banaa aisaa ki hal hi na huaa
Ashq ban kar meri Aankhon se kabhi Tapakaa hai
Jo kabhi Khoon-e-jigar ban ke mizshgaan par aayaa
Aaj bevaastaa yuun Guzaraa chalaa jaataa hai
jaise Me kashmakash-e-zeest mein shaamil hi Nahin”

My English
rendering of the lines would be …..
"Evenings
arrive ,
Dawns too keep visiting me ,
This Fleeting time ,
That fell on my head like a Boulder,
And Sometimes appeared in my path
like the Himaalaya ,
At times,
materialized into a Problem with no resolution,
Sometimes dropped from my eyes like Tears ,
At times moved up to my eyelashes
like my Heart’s Blood.

At times moved up to my eyelashes
like my Heart’s Blood.
Ah !
This time ,
Moves past me today,
Indifferent and unconcerned ;
As if ,
I am out from the
Struggles of existence ...........
