தமிழ் கவிதை : எண்ணமே…இற

After a very long time, wrote a poem. I think this has come after few years and I am rusty. I have tried to translate it in English and it’s quite tough for me to do it. I can’t get the layers and nuances in that my Tamil could express. I should also thank ‘someone’ for inspiring me to write again.

English Translation

To the thought born in my mind

die today

Don’t become a refugee

like the waves of the sea

die now..

If I have make you in to words

you will become a twand

on the minds of others

If I have to personify you

you will be untrue

Are you an orphan?

couldn’t be..

because I gave birth to you

even though I know you are not for me

Who will own you?

just die now…
