Rhyme Scheme: AB CD EFGHI JKLMM NOPNQM BMMQJJ MBBNRSQTNo sooner the Milky Way was drowned in the floods of morning light | A |
Gulmohar made its first appearance and announced the new season | B |
- | |
Some memories from telescopic distances came down floating | C |
Along my surging blood streams | D |
- | |
This language this country this time how can I say | E |
They are mine They were not of my choice nor did | F |
Any one take my consent for it I am their prisoner how many tongues | G |
How many times and how many countries I came treading to this | H |
Tiny village which today claims me I don t know nor do you | I |
- | |
But this day whispers in my ear once upon a time | J |
My country was a flower and I was a drop of child honey breathing in it | K |
Sometimes on my blood shores appear my Palaeolithic implements | L |
Sometimes come down washed by floods | M |
The ancient Sumerians and Mohenjodaros | M |
- | |
I wonder in what jungles I roamed sleeping secretly | N |
In the wombs of tigers and lions which beautiful gazelle | O |
Grazed me on some pasturelands to comfort its hungry flesh and blood | P |
To feel the experience of what forest I became a tree | N |
And grew branches on my body feeling the | Q |
Void with my leafy fingers | M |
- | |
In the primeval consciousness of which ocean | B |
Floated pulsating like a light corpuscle with out either limbs | M |
Or sensory organs | M |
In the cradle of which moment I was rocked in the | Q |
Indefinable experience of oneness in time | J |
With suns and moons hanging like toys in time | J |
- | |
All my memories have come along the floods | M |
Of my blood today when Gulmohar announced the new season | B |
The season which sings to the eternity of creation | B |
In my village today only four know me | N |
The rickety bridge the village stream the old temple | R |
And the whimpering tank bund | S |
