Moments are not the retinue of time There is one whichA
-
decides the turning point of mankind I can t hand over to sighsB
-
that time which stands and beckons me To hell with the shadesC
-
to recline and chew the gum of pastD
-
Remember the storms do not count for a life which stridesE
-
With hills and shifts oceans the fiercest storms blow off whileF
-
Struggles of life flit around like fliesB
-
Look Drunk on pearls of sweat the sun grows largeG
-
and formidable with millions sickles and hammers of lightH
-
In history where savage winds blow in cantos I cannot beI
-
Like the braches of trees that remain trembling in the handsJ
-
Of unrelenting windsK
-
Do not query why so restless ask the ocean why it is restlessL
-
Do not say why so furious ask the hurricane for the answer BetterM
-
Know that time after all is my paper upon which I write theN
-
Charter of my dreams for the world sculpture a colossus of forceO
-
Out of man my will will shout and throw a new era on the earthP
-
It shall confer unrest on man andQ
-
Flow like red hot blood through all the roads ofR
-
Our villages and make him into a sea and into a tempestuous stormS
-
I shall gift that consciousness to my country with my four dimensional poemsT
-
Now centuries will speak the language which I learnt in the wombs of forestsU
-
My word will be the legacy to future generationsV
-
my poems only countries and nations deserveW
-
-
-
Last year's spring flowed away like a riverM
-
into which orchards it meandered and slept I doX
-
not knowY
-
But the spring returned searching for theN
-
mango tree in the backyard of my houseZ
-
Everything in the world is fleeting yet keepsA2
-
returning searching for the beautiful Behind theN
-
leaves in the branches I see footsteps of birdsB2
-
marks of the moments which flew away last yearC2
-
in my tired journey my tavern is the shade ofR
-
a tree and the guest is the fallen flowerM
-
This is spring the year's first dream in whichA
-
I trudge my way on the body of my countryI
-
like the dream that preludes the dawn coveringD2
-
my nakedness forest tying the rivers as my turbansV
-
carrying my road on my shouldersE2
-
I walk coaxing the fields that are cryingD2
-
I walk yearning to sculpture my country's hillsF2
-
that have waited for forms into lions into elephants and camelsG2
-
into workers toilers tillers lovers and into epics that are like their crownsH2
-
the sun is coming with loads of morningD2
-
rays stacked on bullock carts The tree that sawI2
-
me first and shed tears now rained flowers on my dreamJ2
