A FATEFUL EVENING: MY ENGLISH TRANSVERSION OF NEPALI POEM BY BIIRBHADRA KARKIDHOLI

 A FATEFUL EVENING

**********************

The Earth was sinking

In deep trough of darkness

I was sinking and sinking


Utter silence prevailed everywhere

Dismay/ utter stillness

Exactly, on an evening like that

God knows, in what sort of musical notes

We were lost...!

Alone on * Panghat

Singing our own songs


You did not realize then

Water was dripping from pitcher!


The same fateful evening!

Your musical notes, your song

And getting absorbed in self

Was lost unknowingly

Coming close from a distance

Hiding-emanating, emanating hiding

That very moment passionately

You and we met

You melted like snow

Exactly that very moment, that evening

I imagine several times

That moment, that evening

The evening of you and me.


Panghat * bank of river, community well

VINCENT VAN GOG  AUTHOR SPEAKS: KAVI ANURAG ******************************** IN CONTEXT OF THE POETRY BOOK  'BHULA HUA SA YAAD KUCH' ' (RECOLLECTING OBLIETRATED') ******************************************************************************** The world is rich with many great artists who are remembered for providing new heights to art, on dint of their original, distinct skills. But Vincent Van Gogh holds a distinct status. He is remembered as much for his contribution to Painting as for his sacrifice and dedication towards Art. In spite of sufferings, agony and failures on every step pf life, he was always associated with colors and canvas, even during his lunacy. Not even for a single moment, he nurtured any doubt for Art.
