An Age Poem by Asad Zaidi

An Age

Rating: 5.0


Ages now
I can play the role of an old man

with consummate ease.
 


Challenge all those people
do this job
a better way.

It’s real what is being acted out here.

When you reach this age, barkhurdar
you don’t remain an actor.

(Ek Umr)

Translated from the Hindi by Samartha Vashishtha
