Give your melodious voice to a sparrow to sing like a nightingale
And the glowing blush of your cheeks to blossom a lotus in the rain The sparkle of your eyes to shine a stone plainly opaque And the colour of your lips to brighten a rose petal looking pale Your shiny tears to raise gentle waves in the silently flowing river The radiant smile to brighten the sun and the moon in the sky The long wavy hair to weave the free floating clouds And the perfectly curved eye-brow to shape the rainbow Let the green grass in the meadows feel the softness of your feet And refresh the dry noon breeze with the cool softness of your breath But oh! but oh! my precious beloved sweet heart Let not any one possess or to reach your heart Which that only I, out of all, can solely claim hard That enlightens my soul and my heart Till the darkest death do us apart ! |

If you are awake at this hour
My darling daughter, I want you to see How the beauty of the night Comes to life In the sweetest hour Of this wonderful night.... Pure white flowers of the night Get down slowly from their heights Blue stars come alive with their sparkle Falling in love with the ocean And floating towards the horizon Do you realize how enchanting this earth is? Is that why I see a sparkle in your eyes? If we fall in love with the deep dark night We owe it to the sun, the moon and the stars Like we should return the things tomorrow That we have borrowed from the world today And you should love this world too For the world to love you back in return... |

On the path we meet
Pausing for a second, perhaps two Stealing a glance we go Just the eyes talking Hearts silently weeping... Secrets the wind has not felt Secrets the trees has not heard Dreams that are dreams alone Silence is sweeter, when the words hurt... Like an ocean to a thirsty soul A boat stranded on a distant shore Eyes that see only when closed A rose far away out of my reach.... |

Hiding behind the silhouttes of soft moonlight
Beautiful fairies will whisper you enchanting melodies My darling daughter, do not be flattered by their illusions I am your mother, singing you the life's true lullabies.... They will whisper softly into your sleepy ear That your milk has spilled down the flowing river Even the stokes retuned home empty handed After flying over to save it for you, along the river But you do not have to go hungry, so don't fear I am here to nurture you, my daughter dear....... They will tell you that the bright and shiny moon Will feed you milk and honey with a golden spoon Listen sweet heart, to the real big truth The moon can not quench the hunger in your soul They will try to tease you with their scary tale Saying the monsters coming to fetch you In the darkest hours of the night My brave little girl, do not look so pale I will always protect you from all the evil sights.... |

Time and time again
While sailing through The journey of sansaara I saw you..... When I paused for a moment To rest my tired self On each and every shore you were there, and I saw you....... In the darkness of the night Feeling numb with the bitter cold I felt your presence Like a balmy breeze In the summer time Which kept me warm..... When dieing with thirst Drifting along the waves You were the soft rain I felt on my chapped lips.... When my ship was wrecked In the whirling storm And I was struggling helplessly You were the wooden bed That lift myself up to afloat....... When I was lost in the ocean Far away beyond the horizon Blinded by the darkness You were the bright star That guided me all the way Safely towards the shore........ |
