    Mountains and Valleys,
    we have crossed
    with stones and floods,
    in between
    So why are you scared now,
    I ask
    when we are so close,
    so close to preen

    Trees stand tall
    with branches spread wide
    can we learn from it?
    and move ahead all pied

    Fire burns with flame
    but protects in cold
    with its heat and friction
    it can let the story unfold

    Unfreeze your mind
    and take one step ahead
    and thorns on the way
    by me, they will be lead

    Come closer, and look
    what you haven't seen
    oceans of love and care
    always near, have they been

    Ripples and sizzles
    will always be in the plate
    now, dont you turn your back
    calling it as simple fate

    Why can't you see,
    as it is crystal clear
    my love for you honey
    forever, has been real

    Our eyes don't meet
    as silence has conquered the room
    Do you relaise that?
    or you just love this doom

    Moments become still
    when we pass by
    thoughts in mind
    but ego's fly high

    You call my name
    as if I am stranger
    It pricks when I hear that
    as I sense danger

    What has happened to us
    did you ever think?
    or you are happy
    even with this broken link

    I begged and plead and cried
    but you don't want to listen
    dont you love me anymore?
    or you think, I am of opposite mission

    I am trying to protect
    the relation that has come so far
    but you think I am a deamon
    who spoils it with the tar

    why do you close your eyes
    when it comes to me
    but for all the intruders
    the poison they pour, you don't see

    For I am the one
    who longs for you day and night
    till the end of life
    will stand tall in hand with light

    So what is,
    that you can't see
    the tears, the emotions
    or me not being me

    Don't let it stretch
    as I too,
    can loose my cool
    for if that happens
    then my love,
    it will only be you... near you!

    PrettyDee :clap:
    You pour emotions through those verses so well...OMG...How do you do it???
    I've tried somthing too....



    I am like a dove
    With fragile wings
    If i fly high in love
    Then doom is all it brings.

    But now i see a a thin string
    that connects me and you
    Lets divide it into two
    On this string you walk towards me
    And i'll walk towards you
    And lets meet each other half way through.

    Let this string never break
    This time i wont be
    able to bear that ache

    I know that Love can only hurt me back
    So i always ran away from it
    on this heart's worn and beaten track

    But for you my luv
    once again i'll walk on this string
    Now I am ready to face
    my fate for whatever it brings

    I have laughed with you
    For you i've smiled

    I fight with you
    For you i've fought
    ------------------------
    That was a simple and direct one Dinny. Conveys a lot more than intended. At that point it can either be friendship or love. The last para confirms it. Cute one. -rgs

    Perhaps its time for me to share
    Those 8 magnificent lines of verse
    In Devaram, a divine work that goes far
    Than anyone ever would, first and last.

    It is in tamil and I fear my
    Translation may not bring out
    The essence of it, that really lies
    Deeper and I may be long worn out.

    It was about the transformation
    Of a girl thats so dramatic to read.
    It doesn't need any more explanation
    But says it all in that short read!
    ----------------------------------------
    She heard just of his name at first.
    Then, about his looks in awe.
    Later she asked where he lived, fast.
    Soon she was mad of his persona.

    Shunned her mom and everything as well,
    Gave up all culture, taught or owned.
    Lost herself and her name. Only willed
    Nothing other than his feet, so stern!
    ----------------------------------------
    There is a deeper meaning here. The first one is direct, a lover's longing and the changes that she undergoes after hearing of him; yet not being with him, though she longed only that. The second is divine - Its about a devotee's plea to Lord Siva, to be merged with him always. This type of poetry is classified as esoteric poetry.

    To my knowledge, nothing comes closer to this, when we talk about longing and transformation. It was written by Thirunavukkarasar [one of the 63 supreme devotees (nayanmars) to Him]. And Kalki has used this song to depict an everlasting Sivakami [the female lead character] in the climax of his novel, Sivakamiyin Sabadham [The Vow of Sivakami].

    You can read a better translation and more information in this link: Esoteric Poetry | My Ana's Worth
    Thanks so much to the writer [I know not her name; read about her in her 'About' section].
    I hope I tried to convey my best about this. Yet, I know that I failed miserably.

    Thanks Rgs....
    Those verses were beautiful and i did go through that link.
    Devotion and love are two words which have many layers to them.Some understand it and some dont.
    It takes a great mind like yours to translate those lines so beautifully.
    You've really blessed this thread.

    Thanks Dinny, for your appreciation.

    'Blessed' is too big a word for me.
    I just shared what I liked the most.
    There aren't many that I have, you see!
    Yet its enough to get immersed and lost!
