Ravindra A Song O beautiful indicator of the season of Vasant* How blooming you feel in the wake of spring My heart is still in the grip of autumn Trying to wipe out the hidden agonies and pains I am waiting for the clouds to shower some rains O beautiful indicator of the season of Vasant* The Earth is spreading its beauty in the colors of spring And yellow flowers of mustard are singing a tune of love The Sun has started spreading bright light on everyone To wipe out some of my agonies and pains I am waiting for the clouds to shower some rains O beautiful indicator of the season of Vasant* The colors of Holi* are waiting to get mingled in water And the beloved hearts are trying to embrace their lovers Dipped with the heart touching color of Tesu* Which arouses powerful sensations in every lover To get lost in the arms or dreams of their beloved To wipe out some of my agonies and pains I am waiting for the clouds to shower some rains Ravindra Kanpur India 15th February 2010 rkkapoor@sancharnet.in *Vasant = Spring *Ritu = Season Holi* = Color festival of Hindus in which water colors made from flower Tesu only used to be played to truly celebrate Holi. Use of other types of colors are a distorted form of Holi and should not be played. *Tesu = A natural flower which leaves its colors when dipped about 12 hours Have a beautiful enchanting effect on the skin and mind of its players. Now very rarely used during Holi in India, but it leaves a lasting impressions on the one who plays Holi from Tesu colors.
