I May Stop Desiring You Somehow, A Urdu Ghazal By Nasir Kazmi In English Translation Poem by Ravi Kopra

I May Stop Desiring You Somehow, A Urdu Ghazal By Nasir Kazmi In English Translation



I may stop desiring you somehow
My heart may forget you somehow

I see you today after a long time
The day will pass finally somehow

You don't let your lovers enjoy your beauty
I am afraid your beauty will fade somehow

I wish you come and be with me
And then you stay here forever somehow

My heart cries when I think of you
All futile. It may stop crying somehow

'Nasir' a failed lover, wants to cry now
He's afraid his tears might dry somehow

(An added couplet)

'Ravi' too failed in love all his life
Frustrated as he is, he's retired somehow
