In My Thoughts, A Hindi Poem By Raj Swami In English Translation

Rating: 3.3


So strange are
Your thoughts

You are my destiny
What do I call my desires in my loneliness?

My faithfulness or your sulkiness
That makes me desire you even more

How will I end up thinking of you?
Why don't you come to me sometimes

Why don't you fulfill my desires
With the depths of your heart, sometimes.

This is a translation of the poem मेरा ख्याल by Raj Swami Rajesh

you are welcome, Raj Swami. I have just translated an another of your poems: main seedhi baat karta hoon in English. You reminded me of a jaat friend of mine from a village in India, who during my school days, spoke straightforwardly like you.

Your poem was translated as per Poemhunter's guide lines. You do get credit for your original poem. You are mentioned at the end of my translation as - This is a translation of the poem मेरा ख्याल by Raj Swami If you do wish, I will add your name in the title of the poem to the fact that the original poem was written by you. Let me know. I am impressed with your talent noting that you had less than junior high school education. Cheers.
