My Life is A Record | Abhijit Naskar | Yüz Şiirlerin Yüzüğü (Ring of 100 Poems, Bilingual Edition): 100 Turkish Poems with Translations

I don’t do anything for reward,
I do everything as a record,
a record of conviction –
a record of resilience –
a record of thunder –
a record of sentience.

My life is a repository
of what is possible if you put
your petty tribalisms aside.
I leave this repository
in your capable hands –
draw from it as you will –
put it to use as you deem fit.
