The blue sky, dotted with white clouds The sun, in its last lap of race The slanting rays gleam in crystal glow Their beauty to the earth they bestow
As I stand and watch this lovely evening I experience an inner glow of a deific kind Elegant colors flow and fade As the sun paints a paradise before me
The river lies arched like a lunar crescent In my ears falls the sound of lapping waves As she winds her course through verdant banks, She speaks a language I can hardly understand

There is a divine sweetness in the air My exhalation blends with the cool wind That whirs softly humming a mild tune Birds get ready for their evening symphony
The twilight smiles and sends the sun away, Obscuring manifold vistas near and far Night quickly spreads its dark wings It's time to make a move, homeward....!
