"Will You Still Smile?" :)
"I always smile"
"even in the rain?"
"more so in the rain"
"while the water falls down
your forehead, and swims down
your eyes and cheeks,and folds
across your lips to form
tiny drops which fall like..
will you still smile?"
"yes, with wet eyes" she said unaware of
why she said so
"with wet shiny eyes
which sparkle the image of me" he said unaware of
why he said so
And yes! she smiles :)
even today
as the acid rain
produced by the image in her eyes
burns her cheeks
and cuts through her smile
bringing an unwelcome
awareness.

Lol Ali, CopyCat! You stole my veil.
Lewaniya! What is Eeman (Faith)?
Oh Mullah! It is a strong deep thought
It is dreaming a dream with your heart
of a rendezvous with your Janaan (Beloved)
Oh Maniac! What is Moonz (Namaz, Salat)?
Oh Mullah! It is the kissing of dust
It is visiting the street of your beloved (janaan)
It is becoming a fervour of longing and hope
Oh crazy man! What is Sajda?
Mullah! It is turning yourself into ashes
Its the act of placing a garland of flowers
at the feet of your Love
Lewaniya! What is this meeting with Janaan all about?
Mullah! It is drowning in a sea of beauty
It is dancing on top of stars
It is spreading in the moon
Lewaniya! What is Janaan?
Oh Mullah! The sane ones don?t bother to look
It's only the lunatics who can spot and enjoy
the peaceful shadows underneath His curled eyelashes
( I know it's a nonentity in front of the REAL one but atleast i tried)
and i think the emoticons are blue because someone suggested blue ~ brown ie. desi skin colour );
Here! the smiles. But isn't there a way we could change it's colour? I don:)'t like them blue.
And yes i am not going back on my words regarding the dress code i explained to you earlier but i like it all exotic, tribal and colourful.
:)
Small world :) A very pleasant surprise i must say :)
(Shandoor - beauty that should remain hidden from the flagitious eye of ugliness)
And
I thought i was the only one content -analysing Pashto poetry/music these days:)
Have you noticed how utterly brazen pashto poetry is ,even those folk and wedding songs that you talk about- all marked by a flagrant insolent audacity. Just like the People and the Land itself. Like the song you mentioned O Peera and Wachawa lasoona pa ma bande (Wrap your arms around me and let the world go to hell) etc.
And it's so funny we dance to songs that speak of death and tears e.g. Ze che kala mar shama toray jamay wachawa (wear all black when i am dead); Mata janan owaya (Call me Janaan)- it too has a sad note to it. :)
I want a translation of Ghani baba -a lot is lost in translation but then the world needs to know about him and what he said. But i wonder how does one communicate the meaning of words like 'namoos' , 'nang' , 'pakhto'.
The picture has been approved. To avoid plagiarism i must declare it's Bill Stephen's 'Tears of the Soul'.
