I want to breathe you

I want to breathe
you in I'm not talking about

perfume or even the sweet odour
of your skin but of the

air itself I want to share
your air inhaling what you

exhale I'd like to be that
close two of us breathing

each other as one as that.

~James Laughlin

*****

In Hindi:

Mein tum mein saans lena chahta hun
mein tumhari khushbu

ya tumhare badan ki sugandh
ki baat nahi kar raha

Mein tumhari saans ka hissa lena chahta hun
jo saans tumare under say aati hai

main us saans main saans lena chahta hoon
ki hum donon itne paas hon

ki eik doosray ki saans latay
hum dono eik ho jayaen

PS: Thanks to Rahul Pandita for help
in the translation.
