Bubun Chattopadhyay's poem/ Weave/ Translated by Jayita Mukherjee



Weave

Bubun Chattopadhyay


Down there, inside
Reside a shattered moon,
An unfathomed abyss,
An endless aisle in fields
where there is no home,
Nothing to find but horizon
That stands as mirage alone.

you frequent such a way for walk,
you sink down the desk 
In search for the coffined words 
And then made them clash 
That a fire must be born,
A spark for a moment and gone....
Blown out into dark of despair.

Thus lives the life the poet
weaving the threads of failure.

Translated by Jayita Mukherjee
