                        KISHORE  KUMAR  (7)

Master ! After thy devastating fashion,
Thou hath entrapp\'d us all here, we fear ;
And, we are forc\'d to drink of thy potion
As vainly we do try to struggle clear.

Escaping here from the ever-so-cruel video,
We be confront\'d with the disturbing radio;
Running away from yon CD, so intolerable,
We\'re caught by the television, so unbearable.

Enough, master ! So many pleadings,
So many plaints, so many woes,
As we try to escape from thy throes,
Only to get entangl’d in thy trappings.

Thy voice ! God ! Thy enticing voice !
So pitilessly shattering, such wizardry,
Leaving us with not a single choice,
But, to cave in under thy rhapsody.

Everywhere we turn, we find thy genius,
Everywhere we go, thy voice follows us;
For how long more are we to survive thus,
And be charg\'d with making a lot of fuss !

But, master, there be absolutely no escape
From thy works, from thy towering renditions,
We cannot, but remain always agape
At finding in thy songs such perfections.

In all places, near and far,
Thy voice hath spann\'d this universe,
But afore death doth seize our verse,
Accept our song, master, Kishore Kumar !
