Leave Me Alone.

Meherzaidi,The Poet.

A Poem BY Meherzaidi.

Meri khirki mein jo toota hua taat ka parda hai

Who mujhe acha lagta hai

Mere aangan mein jo mitti ka aik matka hai

Who mujhe acha lagta hai

Mere kamre mein jo teri bikhree hui yadein hain

Who mujhe ache lagtee hain

Teri awaz ka who bojhal lehjaa

Teri peshaani ka woh khilta hua rang

Tere lab balabe tabassum hardam

Teri aankhon ka suroor

Tere saath guzaare huey lamhon ka gudaaz

Mujhe acha lagta hai

Bas mujhe koi nai cheez nahi chahiye

Inhee boseeda,shikastaa ka saath

Mujhe acha lagta hai

Apne tootey huey dil ka har andaaz

Mujhe acha lagta hai

Meri khirki pe jo toota hua taat ka parda hai

Woh mujhe acha lagta hai

Teri bhooli huee yaad ka har andaaz

Mujhe acha lagta hai

Translation:

Ah, I love the tattered, torn curtain of straw on my window

I love the clay water pot on my balcony

I love the memories of your love scattered all over my room

I love your heavy voice

I love the glory of your face

I love those sweet lips

I love your heady eyes

I love those moments spent with you

I love all of these

I do not want anything new

I want the company of these broken, tattered belongings

I love all the styles of my broken heart

Ah, I love the tattered torn straw curtain on my window

Ah I love all the styles of your long lost memories
