I dreamt of <br />Signature of light, <br />In the book of the night. <br /> <br />****** <br /> <br />At the far end of the night, <br />The dawn smiles <br />At the last star. <br /> <br />****** <br /> <br />Someone sings at a distance, <br />In the ocean of the night <br />The moon sinks. <br /> <br />****** <br /> <br />It's the last quarter of the night, <br />On the cold wet floor <br />The moonbeams were sleeping. <br /> <br />****** <br /> <br />Let me write a dream, <br />The night of troubles is long <br />Let me create a moon. <br /> <br /> <br />(1987, Translated from Urdu into English by Dr.M.Q. Khan, Gaya, India)<br /><br />Naseer Ahmed Nasir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haikus-the-night/
