Zafar Khan Poems

I hear the steps advancing
who is knocking at my door?
I`m Spring!
The season of hope and joy
...

No bullet can silence
the voice of humanity
against a tyrant man
A shot was fired
...

We watched helplessly your`Tandav`
as you lashed ferociously
and destroyed everything we could boast of
Who are you?
...

My Creator
You are,
the first and the last
the beginning and the end
...

I look at you with eyes of wonder
as you chirp, squeak, whistle, and buz
and flap your wings incessantly
empteen times in the flicker of the human eye
...

O northeasterly dust-laden cold wind
daughter of the Great Sahara Desert
they call you the good, the bad, and the ugly
while I call you ‘Mystery', hidden in haze and fog
...

O Rose of Paradise
Stare not at me
what can I offer thee
human tears, not smiles
...

The Best Poem Of Zafar Khan

Spring

I hear the steps advancing
who is knocking at my door?
I`m Spring!
The season of hope and joy
warmth and tenderness.
I give life to the dead
smile to the sad
with God`s permission.
I`m Spring!
I radiate happiness
remove the clouds of darkness
I`m the season of colours.
Buds await my coming
the breeze warms up once again
and kids dance to welcome me.
I`m Spring!
the harbinger of love and beauty
so, rejoice.
