                                  KISHORE  KUMAR  (1)

Master ! The light that shone,
And will shine on without failing,
Whither art thou gone,
Leaving us all grieving !

Thou, master, with thy unique voice,
Verily were thou the Lord's own choice
To stun us, to capture and enthral all,
And, of our music, to answer the call.

Thy voice, so troubling,
Thy pathos, so touching,
Thy lament, so shattering,
Thy mission, so endearing !

Thou, supreme master : thou, ruler :
Thou, so smashing a miracle :
With thy echoes fanning out ever wider,
Thou art esteem'd verily like an oracle.

Tell us, master, what be the secret
Of thy unique voice, of thy being ?
Why these pleadings so touching,
Why thy songs with sadness so beset ?

Enough, master, we can no more
Drink of these tales so shattering,
Of these laments so sad and sore,
Of these echoes so enslaving !

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 !
