Echo

Love that's born at first sight 
Like a flower that bloomed overnight 
A heart charmed by her native beauty 
Pledged to love her till eternity 

The charmed heart made a silent talk 
The beauty made a distant walk 
Unto the vast world, out there, unknown 
She disappeared before the dawn 

The longing heart began it's chase 
For a heart lost without a trace 
But a true gem can't just be found 
More when it hides on boundless ground 

The longing heart refused to yield 
He searched on steep and distant fields 
His true love, through the world, proclaimed 
A love so true, they so acclaimed 

Through the hymn of his artful expression 
She came to know of his ardent affection 
The charming heart, faded for long 
Came back like echo in a song
