You!

Sometimes like an echo
Of a far reaching bell,
Sometimes like a drop
That plop! and disappeared
As it fell..

Sometimes spreading
Like a smile
That connects the heart to the sky
Sometimes fading
Into a distance
Like an endless sigh

From top to bottom
And side to side
From inside out
And outside in
All that is true
Is utterly you
Right here
Sometimes far
And sometimes near

Sometimes
I dig you out
And sometimes
You drown me in!

Though the vast blue sky
Does not exist
The still and silent lake
Is full of it, full of it!

To search the whole existence,
Is all in vain.
The beloved in the lover's heart
Is ever present!

Shy!

So that only you may hear
My poem is the softest I can speak
Not much to say..
In my heart, to let you peek

And what you see
Tell not even me
Hold it to your heart
Instantly!

And say nought
as you go
Pretending
you don't know

Embrace

Your embrace
opened up
Not my heart
But an ancient wound!

Drew a cry
That I couldn't utter
As I fell right through
This cruel lie..

.. Of seperate existence.

Time slowed
And tears flowed
And as we recovered..

You got up and left
With me sitting here
With an incomplete thought
Holding an unshed tear!

दोन मनातलं अंतर
शब्दात का कधी मोजता येईल?

दोन शब्दातलं अंतर
मनात का कधी साठवता येईल?

रात्र हरपल्यावर
दिवसाचे गणीत चुकल्यावर
श्वास असे बावरल्यावर
आकाश फाटल्यावर
आणी खरोखरच डोकं फिरल्यावर

...

अशा निरुत्तरित मनाला
प्रश्नांचा विसर पडल्यावर

मनापासून जरी बोल्लो
तरी मनातलं का कधी सांगता येईल?

Blinded by that beauty
Overtaken by that flood
In that heart wrenching embrace
My Beloved was lost

Taking refuge
In songs of your love
A soothing distraction
From that heart stabbing presence

Death

A gentle awakening  
A sweet surprise
An ultimate relief
Into a clear sunrise

Of death

A fragrance overpowering
All senses and thought.
This falling or arising,
An unburdening long sought

Into death

Where waiting is over
An end of parting
The only uniting
In this so called departing

Called death

With open arms
As I greet
What is long promised
At master's lotus feet!
