You Loved me - Marina Tsvetaeva in Urdu

Posted: Oct 14, 2009 Wed 11:05 am     Views: 102    Interacts: 0

tu ne mujh se mohabbat ki thee.
tumaray jhoot main teri safaai thee -
har jhoot main teri sachaaee thee.
koi bhi dewaana aisa na thaa
jiski mohabbat is se bhuland thee.

aisa lagta thaa tumari mohabbat
waqat se bhi bahut bhuland thee.
ab tum judah ho rehay ho
ek dum mera dil toR rehay ho
khuda-hafiz khuda-hafiz keh rehay ho.
sachaai ye thee:
tum ko mujh se mohabbat nahin thee.

-tr. Ravi Kopra
from an English version by Elain Feinstein
Original in Russian
