I will find it

Posted: Apr 24, 2008 Thu 08:59 am     Views: 317    Interacts: 5


In these empty corners of this earth,
I belong somewhere, a land of my own
I hear my names, as my soul cries
Alone and abandoned, in my search
From one place to another, I move
Like an orphan from one home to another

In these empty corners of this earth,
I belong somewhere, a land of my own
As these caravans of my existence
Walk through these avenues of extinction
In distress, in despair out of horizon
Like an orphan from one home to another

In these empty corners of this earth,
Elusive this dream, elusive my reach
On the move, like caravans of the desert
In misfortunes my soul, wrapped up
From one place to another, I move
Like an orphan from home to another

In these empty corners of this earth
I belong somewhere, a land of my own
Will find it one day alive or dead
The light of my travels and existence
As I hear those places with my name
Etched and engraved, in silence!

Thanks Shobig_Sifar and Aadil.
I remember those lines very well "dasht-o-sehra mein.."..in fact the best by Lata......yay zameen chup hay, aasman chup hei ",......

"I will find it" is for all in search for home, be it palestine, or kashmir or anywhere where people are struggling to find their spot in life......

Glad you guys liked it...

Very touching. And you will, for everyone does, sooner or later.

Very thoughtful and beautiful! Reminded me of a line from one of my poems which goes like ' Setting out on a journey of self exploration/ I lost my mind in the haze of time'

Share more!

Cheers!
