Unbroken talent

Posted on by Reena Saxena

let me take you where
talent unbroken and whole
a thousand splendid souls
reside in anonymity

let us try to give them a name
they’re not hungry for fame
but for my sake and yours
they need visibility

let them clash with no one
they don’t crave power
I see enhanced worlds with exposure
It is a rare beauty

Josephine Davis’ translation of the poem “Kabul”, by the 17th-century Iranian poet Saib Tabrizi:[10]“

Every street of Kabul is enthralling to the eye

Through the bazaars, caravans of Egypt pass

One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs

And the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls”
