Hello Monsoon


On the zenith of it's fun
Overhead was the sun
Showed mercy over none
Forced everyone to run
For their lives and for water
Beneath the boughs for shady shelter
Soaking up the blood
From their bodies and the mud

The cattle and the herds
Aquatic and the birds
The plight of mother Earth
Craving for rebirth
Cried the heaven's heart
Tears down to oblete sphere
Sweat of clouds and stars
Life was unbearable here
For CFCs and cars

Oh dear monsoon
Carrying the liquid boon
Descending in your silver shoon
Pearls of shining moon
A pluviofile's desire
Lifting farmers' hopes higher
Smiling tiny faces with paperboats
The soothing smell on soil so hot.

तो फिर अब क्यों डर रहे हो?

To infinity and beyond

वो वक़्त तेरा नहीँ
