If you strike a dagger in my chest <br />Do ponder <br />Air has no body. <br /> <br />Air is flow <br />Of running seas of life <br />It's a long story <br />Which has no beginning <br />And no end. <br /> <br />If you strike a dagger in my chest <br />Do ponder <br />Air is immortal <br />Air is mother's pat <br />Air is sound of a lullaby <br />Air is a prayer <br />Out of the mouth of babes! <br /> <br />(1983, Translated by Samina Amjad)<br /><br />Naseer Ahmed Nasir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-dedicated-to-my-murderer/
