What Remains

...

What happens when the fire in the ammunition is extinguished,

What happens when the brown green yellow patterns of fabric

cease to camouflage burly men

and are merely relegated to keeping bruised bodies warm?

What happens once the Kalashnikov chokes and the guns are laid to rest?

What happens after the throat goes sore and the war cry dies down?

What happens when the tufts of grass that can't discern the difference

Between oxygen and carbon dioxide wilt away at the scent of smoke

What happens after the soil, saturated by the blood of men

Says, no more! And the sun drowns into the horizon in shame

not wanting to shine glory onto a gory land anymore?

What remains is the harsh winter wind making every body

strewn across the dammed land, dead or alive, shiver all the same

Shiver at humanity's inhumane yearnings

Shiver at the sin that has been committed by the sons of the land

What remains is the memory of a loving family left behind

A love that is now long lost, and tears left unshed

That is all that remains after the fire is extinguished

yours,

IL

American philosopher Ralph Emerson once asked a heart-wrenching question:

"How much of human life is lost in waiting?"

And the stalwarts of Urdu poetry Jaun Elia, Parveen Shakir and Faiz Ahmed Faiz expressed the agonizing feeling of waiting for someone who is never coming back through their poetry:

Jaun Elia wrote:

Woh jo na aane waala hai na us se mujh ko matlab tha aane waalo se kya matlab aate hai aate honge.

Parveen Shakir Wrote:

Woh na aayega hame malum tha is sham bhi Intezaar uska magar kuch soch kar karte rahe.

And Faiz Ahmed Faiz wrote:

Na jaane kis liye ummeedwaar baitha hu Ek aisi raah per jo teri rahguzar bhi nahi.

And I felt like being stuck in time where every moment feels long filled with some hope and the worry that the person I'm waiting for may never return.

The voices in my head aren't poetic anymore. they don't recite me poems on loneliness or anxiety while I lie on the floor staring at the ceiling thinking about the sins I own.

The voices in my head aren't my enemies anymore. They have become my friends. And for them I ignore the whole world, shutting the door from percluding anyone to meet the friends I admire and adore.

The voices in my head don't speak anymore they just scream, scream at the highest possible pitch they could. They are as loud as the waves of the ocean no matter how much far I stand from the shore but I can still hear the noise they make.

The voices in my head are killing me yet I don't feel any pain because all the emotions, all the human emotions are very long gone. All that resides here is silence, numbness and emptiness.

The voices in my head aren't anyone else but me, I'm the voices in my head. Standing midst of a graveyard infront of the corpse that's been burned to ashes, ashes consisting of parts of me and my shattered dreams. ~ dishaa

𑁍Dil-e naadaan𑁍

Asadullah Khan Ghalib

Scroll down for translation

Dil-e naadaan tujhe hua kya hai

Aakhir is dard ki dawaa kya hai

Hum hain mushtaaq aur wo bezaar

Ya Ilahi ye maajraa kya hai

Main bhi munh mein zabaan rakhtaa hoon

Kaash poochho ke mudd’aa kya hai

Jab ke tujh bin nahi koee maujood

Phir ye hungaama ay Khuda kya hai

Ye pari chehra log kaise hain

Ushwa-o ghamza-o adaa kya hai

Shikan-e zulf-e ambarein kyun hai

Nigah-e chashm-e surma saa kya hai

Sabza-o gul kahaan se aai hain

Abr kya cheez hai hawaa kya hai

Hum ko un se wafaa ki hai ummeed

Jo naheen jaanate wafaa kya hai

Haan bhalaa kar tera bhalaa hoga

Aur darwesh ki sadaa kya hai

Jaan tum per nisaar kartaa hoon

Main naheen jaantaa du’aa kya hai

Main ne maanaa ke kuchh naheen Ghalib

Muft haath aai to buraa kya hai

Translation

My naive heart, what ails you, what?

What’s the cure for this ache, what?

I pine for her; she’s tired of me

My God! What’s the matter, what?

I too have a tongue in my mouth

What then is this hubbub, what?

Wish you asked: what matters, what?

There is none around but you

Who are these fairy-faced, who?

What dainty, mild manners, what?

Such curls in scented locks, why?

What glance, collyrium-eyes, what?

Where from the meadows, blossoms?

What is that cloud, this wind, what? I

want love, loyalty from one

For whom love and loyalty, what?

‘Do good, get good from others’

What else is dervish-chant, what?

I simply lay this life for you

I know not what prayer, what?

I know, Ghalib is no good

What if he comes for free, what?

When Faiz Ahmed Faiz said:

Aur bhi dukh hai zamane mai mohabbat ke siwa Rahatein aur bhi hai wasl ki rahat ke siwa.

And When Usama zoraiz wrote:

Mujhko yeh jaankar udasi hui

Ke kuch masail ka hal toh tu bhi nahi.

And When Ahmed faraz said:

Main tujh se kaise kahu yaar mehrbaan mere

Ke tu ilaaj nahi meri har udaasi ka.

We realized that love is powerful but it cant fix everything.We often have to handle many problems on your own all alone.
