Rain Spatters With Rhythms
In the lake of lilies the rain dances with pouring,
With splashing sounds on the rippling waves
Like a classic raga Meghmalhar!
When on my courtyard the rain spatters
With rhythms, you dance there with thunder—
Amorously attractive! Your defined curves I wish
I could sculpt on my mind-canvas with soft
Artistic maneuver, and with my love I want
To adorn you O dear! Very slowly
The night is aging…I walk along with my fantasy,
With my love, truth and reality—
The distance of love I strode in tranquility!
Meghmalhar: It is an old Indian classical raga. The name is derived from Sanskrit word Megh, meaning clouds.
