Selfish Soul

How's this selfishness of yours,
That you don't take the sun, nor take the shade
How's this selfishness of yours,
that your feet don't stay anywhere?


You've tried being your own God,
and crossed all seven seas,
Still there is a draught within your heart,
Why is it so?

I ask you to listen to me,
Believe me.
Come, your shadows too are calling you back.
Listen to me,
Believe me.
What a loveless and ruthless person you are!

That broken cot,
that cool breeze from the east, Awaits you.
That milk cream
The pot full of earthen water still waits
The whole Sukhiganj searches for you even today.

How's this selfishness of yours,
That you don't take the sun, nor take the shade
How's this selfishness of yours,
that your feet don't stay anywhere?


How's this selfishness of yours,
Neither salt nor sugar fit on your tongue
How's this selfishness of yours,
That you have forgot old love..
O free man, free spirit,
You're a storm of wind..
then why have you ended
within yourself only?
