Motherland by Munira Sultan

 

Motherland

 

Thousands of years later, everyone is still awake.

The wonderful soil where my navel blood was spilled,

"Sweet suffering" why is the coin trembling?

I miss you, Motherland!

 

Homeland, I miss you even far away,

I can't describe it, I write poetry,

Hearing your words, I will water my country,

My mother is hot from you, Mother is the place!

 

When I first step on your threshold,

My father was always like a mountain.

He prayed and observed every day, every moment,

My father wants to come from you, Father is the place!

 

Memories come alive in me again,

When I first opened my eyes,

Silence would be the governor in my world,

I want you in my blanket, Motherland!

 

Eucalyptus in the tracks of my cradle,

If my mother repeats her sweet prayers,

If the past season of my childhood returns again,

My baby is sick of you, Motherland!

I felt your music, Fatherland!!!

Scented Letters by Parvinder Nagi

 

Scented Letters

 

I can still feel the fragrance,

of your perfume,

From all the letters you sent,

 

Those scented letters bringing,

Unlimited kisses so warm,

 

Touching every curve so beautiful,

Freaking the sensations mad,

 

Ahh! how I love the touch of your,

Quill so intoxicating,

 

Electrifying my senses so deep,

Penetrating into the depths of my skin,

 

Revealing secret tales of love,

Each letter carries the bond so strong,

 

Sitting at the window sill,

Waiting for the delivery,

of your ink,

 

I could not wait,

To lay my hand on it,

And go through the read so sweet,

 

Whispering in silence,

Reading your three letters,’ I love you, ‘

to the winds caressing my tresses,

 

Blushing I cherish each word of yours,

Anchoring your dreams in portals of my eyes,

 

Finding the dried petals of roses,

From the pages of your notes,

 

Drowning me in nostalgia,

In the depths of my heart,

 

Some dreams tucked away,

That I could not express,

 

I miss your golden letters,

Touching the core of my heart,

 

For we live in the world,

Where letters do not exist,

 

The ink of your love is worth preserving,

For it has travelled miles across,

 

I’ll cherish your letters till my last breath sealed with a cozy warm kiss!

Hope Never Dies!

 

Hope Never Dies!

 

What a division of the Lord!

Instant, man swings and bids fie,

Tastes immortality, eternity in yellow clad;

Holds sky in the striking eyes,

Walking, creeping among tenacious tradition,

Smiling at silly, embracing demotion,

Years after years, man quenches the thrust,

And feels delighted on dazzled burst,

Urania hosts and sings the divine song,

Athena welcomes and pours Potion,

Hera delights and defeats Odysseus' notion,

Penelope knits even in commotion;

#TEU_BEIJO#

For you .... love you

O que não aprendi ainda sobre o amor 

está em teu beijo, 

teu beijo me daria serenidade, para viver 

essa espera por ti.

Teu beijo acabaria com

minha solidão, com essa saudade.

Ah!  O teu beijo com certeza

iria me fazer sorrir 

e não mais rolaria em minha face 

essa lágrima que derramo agora,

que  não  pudesse ver e, menos 

ainda, imaginar o quanto te quero

junto a mim!

Imagino quando meus lábios 

tocarem os teus,

sentirei a essência da tua ternura 

a me envolver.

Teu beijo tem magia e ser 

encantado.

Sonhar com teu beijo 

me faz pensar em ti

todos os dias e noites 

da minha vida!

Mas eu não tenho certeza 

se um dia acontecerá o

nosso encontro, 

Será que um dia serei

compreendida na intensidade 

do meu amor por voce?

Nesse dia  a página da história 

do nosso amor irá 

mudar  o caminho que 

por fim seguiremos juntos!!!

O que não aprendi ainda sobre 

o amor  está em teu beijo!!!

 CORAÇÃO...

Sou  eu mesmo, tenho  sensações  que  vem  do coração, porém  poderá  sair pela boca  em forma  de uma linda  canção. 

Meus lábios  tocando  levemente  no coração  de  alguém. 

Outros  desejos vem  quase saindo  pela boca. 

Os lábios  não  tremem, porém  o  coração  sai pela  boca. 

Existe  uma  janela  que  sempre  estará  aberta  em todas  nós, coração, emoções. 

Porém  não se deixe levar por  momentos. 

A razão  tem  lugar...

Porém  amor perfeito  é  sempre  envolvido  em  sentimentos grandiosos. 

Aprendi...

Gostar  é  comum,amor complexo...

Envolver  esse amor  é  acontecer  um ato  libertador  .

Porém  não  sai  distribuído  seu coração.

Amor são  grandiosos  momentos  de vida, onde existe  partilha. 

Amar é  profundo  tem  gosto, cheiro, momentos  entrelaçados  em dois. 

Amar é  deixar o coração  sair para fora do  peito. 

Amar é  não  ter medo  de doar. 

Ter certeza  que  onde houver reciprocidade, aí você poderá  morar.

MARAVILHOSO...

É  maravilhoso chegar  na maturidade, cabelos  brancos, soltos  ao vento. 

Olhar sereno  onde tem  seus  encantos. 

Rugas,sinal  de  momentos  especiais  vividos. 

Vivo o hoje  com  serenidade, carrego  comigo  gratidão. 

Tenho  uma  bagagem talvez  pesada, porém sempre  alguém  me deu  a mão. 

Nunca  fiquei  sozinha. 

A maturidade  traz consigo  belezas inesquecíveis, leveza no olhar  que  brilhantes são, embora  já  sofridos. 

A sabedoria  da maturidade  é  um  legado  de  vida onde não  precisa  carregar  consigo o peso  do  mundo. 

Ah! Amar é  simplesmente...

Nuca é  tarde  para  viver sua  história  de  amor. 

Porém  não  precisa  mendigar amor. 

Se for amor  real, ele sempre  estará  presente, porém  não  corra atrás  de quem  faz você  sonhar. 

Depois  de usa e não  tem nada para lhe  dar.

Amor é  sublime  e você  na sua  bagagem, não  precisa  carregar  turbilhão  de emoções. 

Você  mulher  é  desejada, é  sensacional perceber como é  prazeroso sentir seus olhos azuis fitando  o horizonte. 

Ame sempre  quem  quiser  chegar  ...

Chegar  para amar...sentir os mesmos  sentimentos, entender suas fraquezas...

Ninguém é  forte  sozinha. 

Ame sempre...

Viva o hoje..

Lembre-,se você  é  sensacional...

Você  é  única, exclusiva..

 Glória Pereira!!

Humanity

Md Ejaj Ahamed

O Humanity, extend your helping arms 

And embrace all the humans 

To enter the power

So that they may learn to help each other.

O Humanity, spread your protesting arms

And embrace all the humans

To input the quality

So that they may learn to protest against impropriety.

Not only inequity, but also against all evils.

O humanity, expand your arms of harmony

And hug all the people of the earth 

To penetrate the nobility 

So that they may assimilate the virtue maintain must.

O humanity, adorn the humankind

With love, kindness, compassion like a bride;

O humanity, blow up the birds of honesty and generosity in the sky of human mind 

So that the virtues can be restored in a file

 of subconscious mind and

 DNA of humankind.

Time

 Md Ejaj Ahamed

The earth has been suffering from throe today.

His body is afflicted with various ailments;

People's minds are also sick today;

Sectarianism, exploitation, tyranny is reigning 

In the realm of the human mind;

They are running on the paths of the mind speedily, 

Is conquering from one country to another country effortlessly;

The soldiers of harmony, of humanity have been weakened;

Can't stop them.

I believe the soldiers of harmony, humanity Will soon be strong again;

In their body-mind will do photosynthesis of humanity-harmony;

Blocking their way will defeat them.

How many superpowers have emerged over the ages

But according to the rules of time they have fallen;

The DNA of history bears witness.

Bringing the panacea time will heal all;

The nephrons of time will purge and purify them.

The earth will be filled with humanity's and harmony's fragrance.

How Beautiful the World Would Be

Md Ejaj Ahamed

Path is walking in the Sky

Cloud-boys and girls are going to the horizon line

Crossing the borderline undisturbedly with a smile

Seated borderline indifferently

Is looking with curious eyes

Is also looking at the birds in surprise

They are also flying from one country to another country

They are going easily with own minds

I am standing on the border

Many are standing on both sides

Lowering the eyes from the sky the barbed wire railing 

winked at us

Then the memories were gathering in the depths of our minds

And painting on the canvas of the mind

Free goings and comings of sweet memories

Of the fenceless world were running

On the eyes and mouth of wire-fence

A sky-cloud of depression fell

I and he looked at each other with a chestful sadness

on our lips' corners

I thought if these fences weren't there

How nice it would be

How beautiful the world would be

El mundo al revés

Cuando ser inteligente es plagiar,

cuando la mentira es la verdad,

cuando algunos creen que pueden pisotear a los demás:

el fascismo, el nazismo, desigualdad y misoginia, da igual.

Hoy vivimos tiempos de guerra,

se defienden las ideas, 

los poderes fácticos han hecho 

un proyecto de religión, de profecía;

los infantes, inocentes, sufren de hambre, miedo, frio,

mas escalofrió es lo que siento en mis huesos

al ver tanta barbaridad;

dividir es la consigna: estás o no estás.

Quiero estar en paz conmigo misma.

¡Ay, que brille la conciencia en el Espíritu Santo!

Quiero que despiertes

y que te encuentres con tu Ser;

él es inteligencia suprema, 

es la paz, que lleva a ser neutral.

¿Por qué ver el mundo a través del maniqueísmo?

Aprendamos a respetar las decisiones de las mayorías,

los convenios internacionales,

la libre determinación de los pueblos;

imponer es y siempre será un acto de agresión.

¡Oh, Espíritu de la libertad,

haz que el hombre se vea en el salón de los espejos,

que se encuentra de cabeza,

cual oveja sacrificada está la humanidad!

¡Haz que brille la conciencia, en la sabiduría 

de tu luz!
