ခ်စ္သူ

မုိဃ္းေဇာ္


ကိေလသာအေအးဓာတ္တုိ႔
အရုိးထဲပတ္ဖဲြ႔လာတဲ့အခါ
ေစာင္တစ္ထည္တည္း တုိ႔ႏွစ္ေယာက္ျခဳံၾကတယ္။

အခ်စ္ရယ္
ဒါဟာ ဘုရားမၾကိဳက္တဲ့ကိစၥပါလားလုိ႔ မင္းကမေျပာ
ဒါဟာ ေရွာင္လႊဲမရႏုိင္တဲ့သဘာ၀တရားၾကီးပါလုိ႔ ငါကမဆုိ
ရင္ခုန္ၾကရုံသက္သက္ပဲ။

ျပီးေတာ့
ကမ ၻာထဲက
တစ္ေယာက္ကုိတစ္ေယာက္ ကန္ထုတ္ၾကျပန္ေရာ။

(၁၉၉၉)

Lovers

Moe Zaw

The cold of passion
pervades the bones when
we wrap our two selves in just one blanket.

You never say this is something
the Lord disapproves of
nor do I declare this is something
unavoidable, something natural
it's just that the hearts beat.

And then
one kicks the other out
out of the world again.

Translated by Maung Tha Noe
