O traveler, why lookest thou straight on the road grave and speculative, Depriving your eyes such a beatific sight, See the angelic form standeth behind the window curtain, Come, wait, sit beside me, it’s worth waiting, We both will sing in praise of her And linger until she uncurtains the curtain. You say it’s purposeless Why argue? Isn’t it the reason our maker gives us eyes? Isn’t it the purpose of our mind’s evolution to sing and hail the beauty; at least of her. You won’t believe my word? Impertinence! You will be blinded by her shadow spare her presence; “stare not for long”, What? You say it exaggeration… Bon Dieu! If beauty is not exaggerated where lies its charm. Look! her shadow moving, she is growing impatient as if  getting late to meet her lover. Yes, she wins heart in a look and crushes it in a blink and wins again by smile. Monarch sleeps in her bed Life in right, Death in left hand; she possesses, Judiciary in closet And warriors in purse. Countries bow, world kneel, universe supplicate before her. Stop! Where thou going? Pardon these adynatons, I’m drunk in her beauty. Let us sing then, I’ll lead, you follow Flowers wilting in chilled air, Waiting clouds to part To have a look fair, Of moon… Do see the restlessness in that room? I can sense her ***** heaving, repressed sighs and her fingers twisting, twirling in exasperation, It must be a lover who invented the song, isn’t it? A gloomy firefly in this starless sky Searching his lover Who has lost the light, Wait not moon, rise, help him In his plight… Look! look! The curtain is drawn There she, my sovereign, don’t mistake her eyes for stars. Have a profound look, but not too long; this witnesses only fortunate. What? you lost your vision- But I warned you earlier. Now, who’ll testify I saw her?

My Sovereign!
O traveler, why lookest thou straight on the road grave and speculative, Depriving your eyes such a beatific sight, See the angelic form standeth behind the window curtain, Come, wait, sit beside me, it’s worth waiting, We both will sing in praise of her And linger until she uncurtains the curtain. You say it’s purposeless Why argue? Isn’t it the reason our maker gives us eyes? Isn’t it the purpose of our mind’s evolution to sing and hail the beauty; at least of her. You won’t believe my word? Impertinence! You will be blinded by her shadow spare her presence; “stare not for long”, What? You say it exaggeration… Bon Dieu! If beauty is not exaggerated where lies its charm. Look! her shadow moving, she is growing impatient as if  getting late to meet her lover. Yes, she wins heart in a look and crushes it in a blink and wins again by smile. Monarch sleeps in her bed Life in right, Death in left hand; she possesses, Judiciary in closet And warriors in purse. Countries bow, world kneel, universe supplicate before her. Stop! Where thou going? Pardon these adynatons, I’m drunk in her beauty. Let us sing then, I’ll lead, you follow Flowers wilting in chilled air, Waiting clouds to part To have a look fair, Of moon… Do see the restlessness in that room?
