The dreams — you will fulfil
I believe!
I see
the man at every step —
to welcome you!
His iron hands
hold a garland of blooming flowers!
Who has eradicated
the idle and morose life!
The garland,
will honour your neck.
As your heart is heavy
with the sufferings of the people!
Because —
As the velvet spirit of your
strong body,
becomes restless
seeing the chaotic world!
You understand the value of the flowers!
The whole world will flourish
with blooming garden, under the sky!
Man will love flowers,
his ‘Shraddha’* will get ornaments,
He will kiss children,
And will play 'horse' on green lawn!
Tears of eyes
will be sweet, but not salt.
The pyre flame will burn,
but nobody’s desires
remain unfulfilled!
It’s hard
to see God today
He will remain still,
but,
(consider it true!)
then not much worry to us and you!
His difference with us
Surely abridged,
The day
Man fulfils his dream!
*. According to Indian mythology the wife of the first man of the universe Manu, as described in an epic ‘Kaamaayanee’ written in Hindi by a modern Hindi poet Late Jaishankar Prasad.
