Still the spring moon smiles
In the summer sky,
Past love is like the lock of hair
By the touch of wind that does fly.

I cherish so many fancies etherial
So many wishes swimming,
Feeling so eagerness in mind
To cross the dam ramming.

Stormy clouds are in the north-west
A sign of heinous activity,
The poetic mind doesn't care
Keeps ongoing its duty.

O nor'wester! Take love away
I'll be rigid nun,
These two eyes remain sleepless
Like border guard holding gun.

I want sleep, a sound sleep
Be asleep breakup pain,
O nor'wester! Bring a new era
Bring me a happy rain.

The star collapses down,
Comet tells, "I am your own."
"Wipe out your eyes without delay,
Fate staged for my sake this play."

I have been telling so long to commit wrong,
But this unbiased fellow repeatedly sang the same song.
I drenched myyself half but couldn't dive at last,
Someone pulled me back to the painful past.

Is it conscience or religion or society behind?
Or that lovely bird hidden in my mind?
Can the bird read my eyes?
Love is my fate flying in the skies.

I wreathe and wreathe for him,
I do cherish only the blue dream.
He is my life, my dear blue bird,
Sheer negligence makes me cry and ******.

Still I say you comet to go to another sky,
Star collapsing won't make me sigh.
Fusion of hydrogen molecule will take place again,
The star will be loving when luminosity will regain.

O spring! please say,
Why is horizon in heyday?
Beauty! beauty! charming beauty,
Love is spreading incense so pretty.

Who are you playing on flute?
Why are you in hiding, darling cute?
Spring is staining me flower grain,
Heaven is bestowing lovely rain.

What's your age? asks the lad,
You are anti-romantic boy, very bad.
Suppose, I am millions of years old,
Time keeps me beautiful unfaded bold.

I am a poet, the foster-daughter of Time,
I paint images of eternal love in rhyme.
I am ever-sixteen, magical night, flowing fountain,
In blossoms of spring I am sleepless girl having no grief and pain.

I can pass my entire life
Staring at his eyes,
What a surprising feeling!
Is he my vast skies?

His chest is a fountain
Into that I am blended,
Who has created so greenery
In my land deserted?

Branches of my forest are smiling
Bathing in sunshine,
The hermitress is stripping her clothes
To drink a strong wine.

O bumble bee! Please stop a while,
Let's take a little rest,
Let's have a sweet sleep
On spring flowers' chest.

O girl! No no, I won't sleep
Feeling so restive,
Rather let's dance together
And make forest festive.

I don't also feel sleepy a bit
Only pretend to be so,
His eyes have snatched my sleep
Nothing else I know.

O my bird!
Let me stain your face with flowery nard.

My love knows no logic,
Often I cry and often I smile like music.

Two eyes of mine,
Like sunflower stare at you my yellow sunshine.

I gaze at your image,
And find there thousands of stars' blaze.

This is divinely something,
Love is like holi at a moonlit night in spring.

Pain is happiness,
I love you despite feeling intense loneliness.

14th of February,
All the year I love you and nurture you in memory.

Hey distant fellow!
You are like moon on high and me lake in earth below.

The Love that I gave you
Heaven can be touched with half portion of it,
But I spent time to catch
The mirage in desert heat.

Did I willingly avoid happiness?
Is happiness vegetation? Monotonous?
Instead of Manna of heaven
I preferred smell of onion, food proteinous.

This is earth
Abode of human being,
Here in guise of good
Can be seen evil smiling.

I feel very funny
Me also in disguise,
I remain in meditation to avoid reality
Am I foolish or wise?

Love came along with poetry
My happiness flied like vapour,
My two eyes forgot to smile
In a sea of gloom I dive deeper.

He has ruined all my happiness cruelly,
My everything is absorbed by one touch only.
All the time I pass in crying,
Sheer grief is being hidden by apparent smiling.

Can anyone return my happiness?
Come as rain to innundate summer dryness.
The wind will dance all over my body,
Come flood, sweep me away, make me muddy.

O Nor'wester! Come and destroy all antique practices,
Destroy the so called convention and make them pieces.
O devotion, chastity! ****, **** your fidelity,
O pain! Let me touch fire and burn soft beauty.

Today I am like a leopard, wild!
Let me hunt deer! So tender mild!
Hey boy! Be a soldier brave valiant,
Burn the city, burn hypocrisy small and giant.
