Creating a ghazal in English while adhering to its traditional structure involves maintaining certain formal elements typical of this poetic form. A classic ghazal is characterized by rhymed couplets and a refrain, with each line sharing the same meter. Here is an attempt to capture these elements:
In gardens where whispers dance upon the breeze,
I find solace in your love’s gentle tease.
The moon casts shadows on paths long untread,
Yet your memory lingers where my heart has bled.
Stars echo tales of nights spent dreaming by,
With you as my muse beneath an endless sky.
Rivers carry secrets through lands unknown,
But none compare to the words left unsown.
In every moment’s fleeting embrace, I yearn,
For your presence is all that I truly discern.
This ghazal attempts to reflect the essence of longing and beauty typical of its Arabic origins while maintaining a sense of continuity with each couplet standing on its own.
