Tu Requerdo  

Tus ojos se me clavan en mi mente,
y tu requerdo no lo puedo olvidar.

Porque te atravesaste en mi camino?
Porque no te seguiste? Porque me 
conociste?

Veniste a mi y me enamoraste, y luego
me dejaste. Aveses pienso que fue un sueno,
que nunca me quisiste,...

He promised me i would not die
As I’d been forced to live
He promised me I would not cry
And his heart he would give

And now its summed up in a sigh
The sorrow and the pain
No more will I be placed on high
Just caught up in a...

Toe to toe, with you I'll be,
Face to face so we can see.

"A foot is something we walk on.  Another foot is the other one."

'Tu me manques'
Doesn't mean
'I miss you',
As such.
Translated, it's
Something 
Far more poetic,
More like
'You are missing from me'.

Tu me manques.
You are an
Essential part of 
My body, my soul;
Without you I am
Incomplete.

Suddenly, French makes
A lot more sense
To me....

A ballerina's tutu,
Should be called a four,
Unless she's wearing two tutus,
And then it's even more....

Chahat main sambhlnay ka karina to sikha do,
Mushkil main bohat hoon zara jeena to sikha do,

Kiyoun chand say chehray pay baysakoni ki fiza hai
Ankhoon main chupi pyaas ko peena to sikha do,

Main sham dhalay aoon darwazay ko khula rakhna,
Dahleez pay bhi shama ko pighalna to...

What makes you human without your limbs,  
Human without your nose and toes – 
What makes you human without your ears  
Makes the unborn me human without your form. 
Yes, it’s my essence, not form, which counts: 
Be not liberal in defining gender...

Raat guzray gi tu rakh layna bharam ajj kay baad
Hum na ayen gay kabhi shehar main teray ajj kay baad
 
Woh teray sheroon aur gazloon main mera khoo sa jana
Ab na parh payen gay dewan teray ajj  kay baad,
 
Mujh ko lafzoon main saja...

Agricola……
so started Gaius Caesar’s last assault
a farmer, who we hated by default
for Latin somehow came to rule our world
as meanings of declension slow unfurled

Thus, were we tossed into the forum’s pit
to grapple with the words and how they fit
to stand alone before the silenced crowd
to...

Tu me manques

let me 
pour my longing
into my poem

“tu me manques”

and
let it fly 
to you

into 
your dream
and touch 
your exhaustive sleep

hope
the changing seasons
will spin 
its colour 

and 

let it
embedded in your mind

like
a seed that sow
in the depth of soil

my poem
“ tu me manques”
Will always be...

Tu le fera, n’est-ce pas, Papa ? – Translation of Kevin Gilbert’s « Won’t you, Dad ? » by T. Wignesan

Si toutes les jolies mélodies
de ce monde eussent été chantées
et toutes les chefs d’œuvres des maîtres
fussent être exhibées dans des meilleurs galléries
et toutes les statues...

Woe to thee with a trait of jealousy,
spewing forth words of exaltation,
filled with self-righteous indignation.
Thy tongue reproves your own decree.

Thy nature be that of a hypocrite...
with one hand thy offer a pat on the head
with the other, a knife till victim lay dead
With thy dagger...
