…
Do you know when you came?
Riding in the chariot of a dream
In the early hours of the dawn,
While the sun was amusing in his nuptial bower.
As an incomparable piece of music
Like the long remembered overture of a melody
Like a tiny drop of tear hanging on the eye lids
Like the touch of a feather, smothering your love,
Like the silver lining on a ghostly cloud
Like the ravishing tinge of the rainbow
Like the nectar flowing out of flute,
Like the golden moments of a precious dream
Presenting my soul with eternal joy
Like the splendor lurking in the evening sky
Bidding ‘Adieus’, whispering to the sun
To stay embracing her for a little more time
‘I have to keep vigil to see you again, and
Gather in the east in the early dawn;
Like the tender grass peeping out on the forehead
Of the sodden earth, after the first rain
And the sweet passionate smile on its face
When they hustle in its pleasure.
Like the innumerous daughters of the gods
The stars-with their eyelids ajar
In their coyness before the full moon on a wintry night;
Like the golden swans fluttering its wings
In its ecstasy, walking on the shores of love in unison;
Like the sweet freshness carried to the mind
By watching the helpless raindrops dripping
Half reluctantly from the palm fronted roof
Of my humble dwelling…………..I beg you..
Filling my heart with the strings of these
Vistas, do not fade out of this radiant dream!
