Notes About The Poem

A Raja To His Rani

"I'll always be your devoted Raja

            And you're forever my Rani; 

          as sacred to me as The Ganges.

             Rain or shine, you'll remain

              my magnificent obsession,

                 my oasis in the desert,

                a perpetual tattoo stain 

                          in my heart.

            Together, we're unbreakable.

            Neither father time nor death

           can sever the ties that bind us."

                   A Raja To His Rani


          "Mein tumse pyar karta hoon"....

    The soulful whisper of love's promise.




Sanskrit translations:
"Mein tumse pyar karta hoon"(I love you)

Rani(Queen)
