Prem: Hindi poem by Shakuntala Sharma English Version by Rajni Chhabra
LOVE
*******
Love is
Dawn
Light on
Horizon
Gleam
Brightness
Morning
Ecstatic
Never sets
Never hides
In the galaxy of stars
Murmuring
Tinkling
Echoing
In the lip folds
Throbbing
It is chord
Ringing like
Celestial music
Surrounds you silently
It is introspection
It is scherzo
It is sensation
Like waves in river
It is aim
It is question
It is answer
To silent question,
It is kindred
It is cool
It is resentment
It is jeremiad
It is web
It is tide
It is attraction
It is dedication
Of our life
But!!
It is not corporeal
It is beyond physical embodiment
It is lord of this universe
And free in the other realm
It can not be confined
Behind bars of this body
It is dedicated to Divine
It is gist of self-identity,
It is prayer for seeking God.
It is meditation for emancipation.
It is weary of burden.
It is sozzled with caprice.
It is tradition
It is a policy.....
Eternal.....
It is unending love.
Love exists in faith
Life-long in aspiration
In unquenched thirst
In heart-beats of forlorn.
It is gist
It is bloom
It is rectification
It dwells in every song
In every affinity.
It is infinite perennial lyric.
