My country road: poem by Ali Hamid Khan

What a place my countryside

Cool is the breeze and soothing is the river

The mountain is green and verdant

What a sight towering over the landscape 

The woods are dark and deep with tall trees

The birds look cheery happily flying around

The sight is awe inspiring and the peace overwhelming 

The stars are sprawled across the night sky

Far away from the din it is quiet and peaceful

My hinterland is a sight for sore eyes a place for tired bones

Nawabzada Syed Mohammad Mehdi

Hilredth US ambassador and us circa 1960, Prithimpassa.
