Poets Don't

Poets “don't write rhyme” because they reject it, but because they’re not, and never were, good at it. Too many poets don’t spoil the soup (or do they?). They shoot poets—don’t they? “True poets don’t belong to any country.” “Poets don’t fall in love.” Silent poets don’t break the silence. No one ever said that poets don’t deserve the same things. Simply that those things don’t really exist reputably for poets like they do for other… There is a running joke, with a kernel of truth in it, that poets can't drive; poets don't do it for the money. Poets don't.

Suk pa talo zangadal suk pa rasoo tarali.
Sa ajiba hukamrani wa da ashna kosa k.
dar ser baber lamater ao shownday wachay wachay.
Pa friadoono pabandi wa da ashna kosa k.
Halta saroona daokadal kho pa las sa na ratlal.
Qarara dasay juwari wa da ahsna kosa k.
 
Che taabya sta da Didaar kram,
Nor sa na krama zaan Khwar kram.

Tor orbal de pa maa khor kra,
Che de zulfy tar pa Tar kram.

Krama khkul che de sre shundy,
Da Raqeeb pa zra Guzaar kram,

Pa dunya me hes kaar neshta,
Za da eshq kaaro Baar kram.

Pukhla khpla sha Janana,
So mennat ba da Rebaar kram.

Raqibaan me domra khwah di,
Che hama pa sar da DAAR kram.

Rogh ba nasham IMDAD KHIYALA,
Toro stargo de Bimaar kram.

Aey khoba hagha khpalla bewasee de yadda na da

6 yadd ba takhta waley harr makham da cha da stargo

Zwanee moo sa pa grana tera kare da malgaro

Har zAy ba ghawrey daley woo yawo daam da cha da stargo

Khoboona ye wrak karee, humm arram da cha da stargo


 
Da makham tyare khwaregi Janan neshta

Yak tanha Jwandun da cha pa intizar ke
Pa salgo salgo teregi Janan neshta.

Ger chapera mehfaloono ta che goram
Yaran khpalo k khandegi Janan nishta

Sparle raghlo ho malgaro za ye sa kram
Bulbulan ka khoshalegi Janan neshta

Che me yaar sara pa meena tere kare
Hagha wraze me yadgi Janan neshta.

Za ghamono da Janan zare zare kram
Dwara starge me waregi Janan neshta.

Shwe shoro da Zankadan Salgai IMDADA
Rooh zamana rawanegi Janan neshta.
