                            KISHORE  KUMAR  (6)

Master ! Thy songs do afford us such joys :
The wails with which thou did experiment,
Fashion'd so well after thy own secret ploys,
Do stun us everyday with infinite amazement.

Thou, master, verily were given unto mankind
To dispense freely of thy throaty passion;
An unequall'd genius in thee do we find,
And, thy pleadings perforce must we ration.

Indeed, by necessity must we ration thy pleas,
For, of devastation be they so fully laden;
On that certainly are we not mistaken,
As we see them gloriously span the seas.

Thou surround'd us with the thickest mist,
But, cruelly were we struck with great grief
When death pluck'd thee from our midst,
Callously like some heartless, pitiless thief.

Master ! Every passing day we do grieve,
As our cup doth overflow with weary sorrow;
In vain do we beg for some passing reprieve,
As the radio assaults us with another blow.

Stop it, master : enough : please !
Even for a minute wilt thou not cease
To torment thy poor, forlorn disciples
With thy devastating vocal ripples !

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 !
