No Smoke From The Chimneys By Siddhicharan Shrestha

No Smoke From

The Chimneys

Siddhicharan Shrestha 

(Translated by Michael Hutt)  



I don't have time, 

Death, do not call me, 

I don't have time to mop up

the blood from the broken head. 


Lady, do not detain my advancing my feet, 

I have no  time for your blandishments.

The people of my country 

have cancelled their meals,

and are struggling: look!
