ZINDABAD......

From "Sincerest attachment " to "Who you are ?" .Zindabad.. I add select lines from Dina Nath Naadim's poem Zindabad ...


“ Zindabad me Huz Buss Chonuyii Sreh
Zindabad Tche Pyokha, Adhha Huz Pe
Zindabad, Tche Kuss Huz ?Valaa Huz Beh,
Aessi Vo’t vuchhan Yi Haal Lagaai
Yu Chhu Soruyii Mayaa Zaal Lagaai
Sonn assith Zun Aeiss Traam Sapidh
Kyaa Taam aasith Kyaa Taam sapidh
”
( Dina Nath Naadim )
“ Long Live sir ;
My sincerest attachment remains for you alone .
Long Live Sir ;
Have you lost?
Then get lost.
Long Live sir ;
Who are You ?
Come sit here .
We have only been witnessing such like things ,
And All this is a mystery or “Maaya Jaal ” dear.
We were gold but look at how we became copper now,
We were something special
but look at how we became some other thing now."


( Select lines from From poem “Zindabad” or Long live . A sharp socio-political satire by modern Kashmiri poet Dina Nath Naadim )
