Poems

Eklo ma (alone me)

K artha bho jaba koi chaina
What's the point when there is noone

Saath dina lai,
To support

Sodhna timi thik xhau?
To ask 'are you okay?'

Vanna ma xhu... nadarau.
To say I'm here.... Don't fear

K artha bho maya gareko
What's the point of loving?

Maan ma dar vako bela eklai hune vaye
If it's to be alone when my heart is scared

K artha bho pariwar ko
What's the point of having a family?

Jaba saath ko kami huda haat nasamaune vaye
That won't hold your hands in dire need

Akhir eklo ta rahechu ma
I was alone afterall!

Timro soch le timi eklo vako re
You are alone because of your thinking they said

Khoi ta maile dakeko bela?
If so where are you when I'am screaming?

Timi nai ho navanne kehi re
You are the one who doesn't share they said

Khoi ta maile bhaneko bela?
If so where are you when I'm pouring my heart?

Eklo rahechu ma
I am alone,

Yo sansar ma na nata na gota
In a world where there is no value of any bonds

Alik din ko maan santusti ani
Just some days of playdates

Afnai bato lagne yo sansar ka lai
And then walks away like you were nonexistent.

K asha rakham ma? K soch boki hidu ma?
What hopes am I supposed to hold? What kind of thoughts should I carry?

Eklai ta rahechu ma.
I was and I am alone

Eklai nai thik chu ma.
And I'm better off alone

Naaunu koi aba... yetikai thik chu ma.
Please don't come anyone anymore... I am good here alone.
