tr. from Ashok Vajpeyi's '?? ???? ????'
He says
he has only a little heart,
like sunrays say
they have a little light
fire says
it has a little warmth --
sunrays don't say they have the universe
fire doesn't say it has those flames
he doesn't say he has his body.

[after Ashok Vajpeyi's return of the Sahitya Akademi Award, Oct '15]
