Vasava - An Untold Story 10/Many

Vasava – An untold story 10/Many Curtains made of Silk with gold thread embroidery Were hanging on all the doors and windows of the auditorium Big silk curtains, were hanging behind the dance stage Shining and blinking, because of gold and silver on them, Were brightening the dance stage, making it bright like a day Beautiful Persian carpets were displayed Covering the entire auditorium, where the guests were sitting A thin such carpet was also lying, all around the stage Leaving the dance floor, which was made of Mahogany wood On which, Vasava was sitting to start her first Raga of the day All the eyes were drinking the nectar like wine of Vasava So lovely were her looks and so intoxicating was her youth The beauty of her spotless body, was spreading its charms Which was coming out, from every part of her body, specially The matchless beauty of her eyes, legs, waist, hands and bosoms King Suyodhan was invited on the stage to declare the Utsava to begin And then appeared the attraction of the Utsava or the day, Vasava The drums and musical instruments began to flow their sounds The team of musicians accompanying Vasava, took seat near her Suddenly all became speechless, so that they may not miss a word of her singing Vasava’s face appears to have taken, the beauty from full Moon glow And the gold Noopur* which she wearing in her feet’s Were ringing, on her leg’s movements, creating a melody on its own, Her recitation of Saraswati’s* prayer had already enthralled everyone And now she was about to begin, her first performance of the day Ravindra to continue in 11 Kanpur India 21st March 2010 Copy writes protection as per Poetry Soup automatic Copy write provisions also. * Gold Noopur Noorpur means small bells, which dancers wear while performing the dances in Indian. The Noopur which Vasava was wearing were made of Gold. It creates a sound on the movements of legs. Normally it is made of brass and many such are tied up in a cloth belt. * Noopur A hallow anklet containing tiny bells
