but there is a window open
from my heart to yours.

They vanish as abruptly
as they appear,

busy perfecting
the art of truancy
when they send you away to school.

अब रात घिरने लगी तो तूं मिला है
तूं भी उदास, चुप, शान्त और अडोल
मैं भी उदास, चुप, शान्त और अडोल
सिर्फ- दूर बहते समुन्द्र में तूफान है…..

~ एक मुलाक़ात, अमृता प्रीतम

When I didn't know how to live
I became my grandmother:
opening windows in the morning
early enough to see the light
sifting between the curtains
