SOMETIMES (Amjad Islam Amjad)

Translation of an Urdu Poem

Sometimes when nights
seem like strangling you and
the sounds are sound asleep,
a strange dream still
keeps recurring --
I see on the other end
of the sheet stretched
over him and me,
he too in his loneliness
is wide awake.

Note: The original poem of
Amjad Islam Amjad in Urdu is here
