"Love" - From Siraiki to English Translation

I am happy to inform you that Muse India's July-August issue has included my poem "Love" translated by Nukhbah T Langah. The poem is originally written in Siraiki available on my blog here.

"Love"

Don’t imprison me, I am the entire world

If you desire, call me Allah

Call me Ram, Sham or Isa, I am one and only

I am in all, all are within me

Everyone living in this world are my life

Sun, Moon and stars are my reflections

Motherland, sea, mountains sing my songs

I have sacrificed the entire world for Siraiki

If you divide it, you will fall badly

O Siriaki people, I will share a secret with you

I have been tied with love, love each other.

My house is neither a mosque nor temple or Gurdwara

Don’t imprison me, I am the entire world

If you desire, call me Allah

Call me Ram, Sham or Isa, I am one and only

I am in all, all are within me

Everyone living in this world are my life

Sun, Moon and stars are my reflections

Motherland, sea, mountains sing my songs

I have sacrificed the entire world for Siraiki

If you divide it, you will fall badly

O Siriaki people, I will share a secret with you

I have been tied with love, love each other

World Peace

Osama Bin Laden is dead. Long live Obama Hassan Barrack.Well, does this mean, the world is more secured? Do the American feel that they need not fear the threat of Terrorism? Would we have the World Peace now? Would Pakistan now stop sheltering terorrists?
