阿米奴，你是幸运的
被一枪处决
干净利落的结束了
你那卑微弱小的生命
就在一声枪响后
生命，简单如画上一个句号
不带一丝痛苦。
阿米奴，你是幸运的
如果你有机会来拘留所看看
那些被我们热情招待过的
表情稀奇古怪的
内赃七零八落的
挣扎了五天后终于大彻大悟的
尸体
你的心里将充满感激
注：此诗模仿嚣张和草菅人命的警方的口吻而写。
The Lucky Malay Boy
Aminul, you were lucky
Killed by only a bullet
A clear-cut shot that ended your inferior life
With a single thundering fire
Life, concluded as simple as a full stop
Less the torturing pain
Aminul, you were lucky
If given a chance to visit our detention house
You could see it with your own eyes
How hospitable we are in entertaining
From the weird expressions on their faces
From the dislocations of their organs
And finally, enlightened after 5 days of struggle
Before turning into some cold bodies
You should feel how lucky you were
Note: This poem mimics the arrogant tone of the Police Department with regards to the recent unfortunate incident.

真可惜，可惜万分！国家未来的栋梁就这样的白白牺牲了！
太直接了。。。该顾虑到他他家人的感受，虽然他们也许看不懂或看不到
误会了吧？此诗是以他妈的不可一世的总警长的口吻来写。
Liked it, though the background incident is not completely known. But the life of the suffered/opressed/down-troden always has the same black back-drop. Scratching the thick layer of indiffenence from our own faces is a poet's prime job asigned by himself to himself. Would love to read many more translations.-Sudhirkumar Dhawadkar, India
Thanks, Sudhirkumar. But unfortunately I don't have the luxury of time to do translation.
