| Write on the breeze Name of the breeze As greetings from this unknown stranger. In whose name, and for whom is it O birdie, your melodious song? When sunlight fell on the branch To have its friendly touch The evening jumped down Smiled, and invitingly gestured It keeps playing with the dawn here. On the breeze write… The playful flowing water Forgetting its normal course Lies, as if it is flashing a mirror To throw sunlight on the flowers These are naive faces with innocent name. On the breeze write… (This is based on and almost a translation of a song of the famous poet and lyricist Gulzar who wrote this for an old Bollywood film ‘Do Dooni Chaar’. I have been very fascinated with the lyrics of this song since early age; so this one is as a mark of respect for the poet) |
