An Ill-Fated Person Meeting His Loved One

'An Ill-fated Person Meeting His Loved One' It snowed And she appeared like the snow She appears like the speed of a storm I do not know when she arrived Like a pleasant breeze Why do I look for her somewhere else? She is all wet in the heavy rain The filth of the mind gets cleaned on her arrival I get swayed when I see her Why am I so? The leaves have fallen dried But she blooms at her fullest Though this life is hers Who am I becoming so covetous? There is scorching heat, but she doesn’t sweat She arrives like the hailstorm But it’s me who sweat Why am I so? She smiles when we meet She shies away when she sees It seems my loved one sings and plays But I go unmoved when I see her Why am I so? She appears in the early hours of the sun rise But never disappears And I keep imagining her Why am I so? She keeps saying, and I continue listening It appears the life has begun glittering And when I peep into her, she shies away Why do I but peep to see her? Those deer-like blue eyes Tightened arms Those movements of a cat-walk And I wait her coming at the cross-road Why do I wait her When I do not know The date and time of her arrival? The God carved her And showered his blessings That the laughter and the joy be with her Let no one do her any wrong It has been ages that I haven’t seen her But I can’t still forget her Why am I so? It snowed, and the snow melted And then she rose She bloomed and shied away like the storm And then there is the scorching heat I remember her in this heat now I melt when I imagine her Why am I so? I don’t know why I couldn’t get a sleep today And there came a snowfall of the next year I imagined a body like the snow And thus my eyes opened I met my loved one What a fate I have? Her legs staggered Eyes wet with tears Puckered lips I could not tolerate the marks of lashes on her body Why can’t I look at her Even when I see her? I heard to her sobbing voice Exhausted shies and gestures The snow melted unnoticed And she too disappeared What an ill-fated person I am Meeting my loved one!
