Now that the breeze has learnt to write <br />She can choose to rewrite autumn as spring <br />To redefine spring as waiting <br /> <br />Now that the breeze has learnt to write <br />She can transform the urge to travel into a curse <br />And curse those sticking to a faithful path <br /> <br />Now that the breeze has learnt to write <br />Coming together is described as moving apart <br />Love, portrayed as a weakness <br />A tree, something that cannot give shade <br /> <br />Now the breeze can extinguish our lanterns <br />Give credence to dusk, dismiss unreliable dawn <br /> <br />Oh all you who teach the breeze to write! <br />Now that the breeze has learnt to write <br /> <br />[Translated by Nukhbah Langah and Lavinia Greenlaw]<br /><br />Noshi Gilani<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-breeze-rewrites/
