COVID-19


Punitive
corona virus--
lépreuse
some say it's invasion
the barbarian without


quarantined
I clear my throat
behind the face mask
breathe in unknown viruses
suffer new repressions


now lockdown
cut off life:
castration
Hugo said monasticism
resisting death


--R K Singh


COVID-19
Corona virus.
Punitivo,
leproso 
algunos dicen
es una invasión. 
Cuarentena
limpieza del pecho
tapabocas
respirando viruses desconocidos
sufriendo nuevas represionnes
 encierro castración,
monasticismo
resistiendo la muerte.
--Ram Krishna Singh

Tr. Joseph Berolo

The poem translated into Arabic and French by Assil Chebbi, Tunisia. Published on Facebook, 26 March 2020


قصيدة كوفيد ــ 19
الشاعر الهندي: رام كريشنا سينغ
ترجمة أصيل الشابي 26 ــ 03 ــ 2020
منتقم
فيروس كورونا هذا
الأبرص
يقول البعض إنّه غاز
بربريّ لم يُذعن
للحجر الصحي
أحكّ حلقي
تحت كمّامة الوجه
وأتنفّس فيروسات مجهولة
وأغرق في الذّعر
الآن هي لحظة الإقفال
إقفال الحياة
الطامة الكبرى
لكنّ هوغو قال يوما
في الخلوة.. يُمكن مقاومة الموت
