WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST
(Bijoylakshmi Das, 19th August 2020)
When clouds reach Earth’s playground,
With El Dorado’s splendour all around
Beauty of the smile sublime
Offers felicitous feelings at your door;
Turns into silence of the sound,
Oh Dear! Traveller of the recondite Vast!
Where is grief?
All is Bliss and divine spell-bound.
May I steal a few pearls
From the sandy depth of the sea?
And make the world change in a glittering spree?
With the whisper of the smile.
The lone recluse of the forbidden realm
Forgetful of the grief and the forsaken pain,
The golden mansion and its emerald diadem
The lone caravan is out on his predestined journey infinite
To the land of Wisdom with a watchful foresight
Seeks after the Paradise long-lost once again.
Alas! Love is not a frolicking game!
Idle mind’s pastime in the passionate realm.
All yearnings of errands of –
Notes of epiphany of the flute,
With blush from the Blue and your staggering look;
The solace of solitude showers grace at your solemn feet,
The starry blossoms are clad with celestial moonlit Bliss.
Everywhere there is limitless mirth,
To enthrone you in the enlivened birth.
The hidden call from the unforeseen heaven’s height,
The lisping lips of love reveals ‘love at first sight’
Drops of nectar drizzle from the ravished heart,
The Journey to the ecstasy-rapt Rapture
Forever to last.
Feeling felicity of poise
On your dreaming wings,
Your flight to the Unknown
With miraculous happenings;
Oh Caravan of Delight!
Tarry a little on your rose-spangled path,
Let Light, Love and Joy
Make your living worth
In the new awakening of the enlightened Birth.
