Patradoot Or the Messenger 13/Many
Patradoot or The Messenger13 /Many
English version by
Ravindra K Kapoor
Such enchanting beauty, you would find every where in India,
By seeing only such alluring charms, do not get lost,
As your mind may get filled with an intoxicating pleasure,
But remember dear, you have to deliver my message to my beloved.
Way ahead, the lovely method of Rahut * by which
The farmers irrigate their fields, would attract you,
And listening the Corus, sung by village girls,
Would pour honey like nectar, in your ears.
Ravindra
Kanpur India 28th May 2010.
* Rahut. Persian wheel for drawing water from wells.
