FAROOQ NAZKI'S POETRY ON FISH , FISHING NETS AND FISHERMEN

                                           

BELOW AND OVER  WATER'S  SURFACE  

Through the lines mentioned below, poet Farooq Nazki conveys something different. It is quite true,' whatever appears on the surface may not convey the reality below the surface '. It applies to any situation.   I quote the poet:-

"Me vuchh zaal gaadan karaan  raahnumai,

 Me vuchh zaal haanzan  karaan jaalsaazi ,

Me vuchh aab  tael aab peith kyaah chhu sapdaan"

( Farooq Nazki )

My English rendering would be like this:-

(I saw the fishing nets leading the fish  to freedom,

I saw the same fishing nets  misleading the  fishermen,

I saw what happens  below and over  water's surface )
