Translation of Cheluvu-Olavu by Dr Shivarudrappa from Kannada to English by Dr M A Raveendra



Dr g.s. shivarudrappa:cheluvu –olavu:
Jasmine:
See this here blossoming laughind
Seven rounded jasmine
This much of greenish green plant
How did it appear as white!

Above in sky hundred stars
Blossoming  twinkling before
Like a silver shining
Only one flower in plant

Truthful man’s meditating silence
 As though blossoming coming
Love filled innocent’s chest
Thrown soft words

Arising from poet’s mind slowly
 Blossoming coming  imagination
What a skillful delicate art
Appeared by itself

Budding slowly in silence
Without knowing by itself
 Beauty slept in bud
Today has opened eyes

 What a delicate are petals
Like a child seing dreams
What a melodius  fragnance it has
In mind of that mahathmas

Holding flowing  mind in one place
Standing washing this flower
Cleaning the beautiful life
 What a kind of wonder it is?
………………..end…………………………………..

Flower creeper:
In side of path which nobody has tread
Is in silence this beauty
In beautiful nature’s network
This innocent is a pride!

She has eaten melodius tone of bird
Has drunk tears of heaven
In kiss of golden ray’s softness
Knows to blossom thhhe lips

In murmuring sound of soft air
Wables dancing
Humming sound of distant bees
Slowly attracts towards her

This woman’s body  bathing in new rain
Heaven approaches in chest
For her beauty even rain bow
Bending pressing  kiss

Will you ask her name?
For beauty like this name is deficient!
 For beauty challenge is beauty what oyher?
To keep in silence is ‘honour’
……………………………end……………………………………………..


One night:
See what a kind of light sky opening it’s chhhest
Spilling all lighhht ohut!
Only moon in sky  in it’s creation
Rasa floeting  rasika!(interested)
Bathinhg in milk light
As though  being   blessed
Thinking  at distance  likr satisfaction.

Night mother’s  neck’s  downhinhg from mangalya
Like shinhinhg everywhere  enlightment !
Whhhhat a wonder! Light spilling
Under sky world hhhas become small!
  Milk drunken child throwingcoloured  toy
Is shhining whole town.
……………………..end……………………………………

Nature poet:
 From sky hair ganga
Near bhageeratha
 Like coming down nature
Came near poet

It got satisfaction
 Which it did not get  so far
In poet ‘s  neck itself
Lahari  lahari(mood)  emited

 In hundred ways nature
 Tried to express by itself
 It’s heart’s  feelings
Wished to show   by speaking(speech)
 Emiting laugh in lighteng
Showing tone in thunder
From thread ladder
 Came down to earth’s chest

Mind of cloud  getting down into earthhh
Emited in green
 It’s chest’s golden dream
 Became budding flowers
 Became fruits
Became food to world
In  meter (chandassu)of season song
Came dancing dancing
Hundred kinds of wonders
Became sac of  rasa

In neck of bird nature
 becoming  various melodius raga
tried to emit and failed
along with  air universe
wanderd and roamed.
B ut what,nature did not
Even little satisfaction.
Dumb silence and sorrow
Came filled up mind
Is there anybody who can who can
Play  understanding my chhhhest?
Can I live without expressing
Myself?in this  worrh nhhhhhatuhre
 Blessed dailh
Everyhday did penance!
Everhday  nathure 
 is doinhg  Penance.!

Doing penance like tis
Waiting  every day
At last penance  became fruitfui
Dream of chest  realized
In wonder this earth.

In difficult net of world
In meet of common people
 Found a person!
Though pained by poverty
Though bathed in tears
Worship of beauty
Engaged in this  penancing
Power of man’s chest
Grace of nature came down
Towards temple of  man’s heart!
You by experiencing me
give me relief
not only for me see
for you also it is relief
requested that
depending on poet.

Became fruitful   nature’s  chest
Long time achievement
Being fruitful poet’s vision
Of worship of beauty
To grace flowing near
Bending  head
Melting in speech
In chest by itself
For world is singing here
In hundresds of sweet tone
By hearing poet’s song
World has wondered in mind
From sky hair (vyomakesha) ganga
Near bhageeratha
As though nature has come down
Coming near poet.
………………………………..end………………………………..

Suntara gali( hurricane?)
Uniting day leaf, dirt, sticks
 Lifting tower of dust
Turning suddenly
Lifting hood like kalinga( king cobra)
Attacking sky
 Playing  storm  you see!

Takathai,ditthai
Takathom dithom
 Like ravana of open drama
Dancing rotating  this
See trick!
Bodyless,signless air
 As though body  appearing(my thaledandadi)
In some meter(chandassu) bondage!

someWhere   some how had fallen these
dryleaf,dirt,stick,piece!
Like people who rose up in personality of gandhiji
rised   above danced  like sand(marulu,mad?)
fell some where else!

 Half a second  in open field
 Some how came some how went
View of  storm
As though some one has done magic!
……………………………….end…………………………………

To rain cloud:
In   severe summer dried and becoming  leaf
Call of earth’s green is not heard?
Which deafness to you have  filled sky(cloud)
Is mere acting natural to you?

Mind baked  in sunlight  whole day,in evening
Uniting standing filling sky
Rolling lightning  (twinkling) eye that and this side
Seing you who is loving(anuragavathi)
Today it will definitely rain
Pouring as  flow(dhare)
Opening eye lije cup of desire
standing humbly!

What a lightening,sound by your grandure
what a beauty of sowing hope!
At last to walk  some where as it comeswill
Will you tighten knot of hang  of long sighs!

 Not artificiality of  miser’s human world
Has it touched you at this time?
 Is it for this  that kind of stunt(drama)?

Responding to shouting,requesting’praying
Time has come today therefore
Telling by scolding   probing and told
A little will be known some  body is here
…………………………….end………………………..

Rain:

Oho! Came
Came at last
So far sowing  the desir of coming
Had disappointed us.
Some they will moov
Thinking like this we sighing
At last came
Guests of sky!

See jumping(falling)
On  house  tiles pata pata pata
Got down got in
Flowing like little children!

They went there went here
Desire of speaking  with all!
Under tree under plant in garden
At last in slum of drainage
How much desire of this earth!
flowing children of this sky
what a grandure  enthusiasm
for their  coming
mrudanga of thunder,arathi of lightning
all are for  good of this land.

come guests
welcome to you
for love love  is
gift what else
…………………………end……………………..


Dry leaf:
To  winter (kulira) air  dry leaves have fallen
Flying like just devils!
Smoke snow covering is smelling them
like a dog  by side of roten bone

 from fallen dry leaf  what is the use?
Put fire by gathering  mass
 Did you fire? Along with  smoke and snow
Smoke is rising up  sighing(suydu.suydu)
Simi simisi(……………………….) is burning red tongue of flame
 Making life of dry  leaves   into  ashes
Mere ash remained as memory,air is  coming(moving)
By itself singing last son(charama  geetha)

Falling from tip of  leaf  snow drop if falling
 For memorial of  dry leaf as tears!
 Behind tender leaf a little bird is crying
cursing our  kindlessness!
…………………………………..end……………………………….

Evening:
Pot of day light
Broke into pieces
In western   ghat  peak(shikhara  dare yondaralli)
The rasa in pot  flowing to directions
 bursting even  to clouds
 here and there drying up in silence
lass of sky is standing  in wonder!

Ayyo what an accident!
 In dried reduced face
Looked at world then in depression(dullness)!
 Leaves of coconut garden in  line
 Wept murmured in air
Soon after news,air god went
 The news spread to world in a minute

Broken temple’s silence was covering  earth
Light’s piece of day was melting in pain
Getting into arms of  silent past words
Hundred  insects (jeerundes)  murmured  as thouh drilling ear

In black  fate of sky stars twinkled
As though opening eye to see
No,not like a lamp glowing (enlighted)
  On graveyard of day
…………………………….end…………………………….

Jeerunde:
Jeerunde has sounded ‘chir’
In black jail(…………………) tree
 Night is down air sweating
Earth is quacking in fear

In tomorrow morning churning
Light to remoov  butter
  To Put heppu(…………) to night
Jir jir sound!
Simply hear to sound
ear drilling this sound!
Star seing in wonder
Muguvattive(…………………….) the chodyava(trick)
………………………………..end………………………..

Exploded desire:
 The desire which was not desired
came and touched chest
told open door!
Opening the door called “come in”
It’s thread  tied my chest tight
Some desire some beauty
 Attracted the mind
 I mind a seed
Fell rised by budding
 Absorbed chest water!

 From beyond open door
something   appeared
indra world
 moon  world
smile of beauties
good smell of mandara
archestra of  gandharvas
 filled up full of mind
jiva(life) told aha!

Was seing,the view (vision)
  Suddenly  disappeared
Dream broke from broken egg
Smoke came out
Pulling throwing out
Buded plant
Desire flied off

 Came some how one something
Sowd a pain
Came to chest  like light
Keeping spark and flying
What  a kind of play
 Mind did not know
Simply sighed long!
…………………………….end…………………………..

 Lover (manadanne):
False anger for  four  second
Next moment  only snow body
Knowing flower sun light      as though emited
Kind of laugh
 Walk is like lightning moon of eighth day
In his early morning  earth’s seducing
Soft smile fascination. Capturing
Smoothness .in tears sharpening her
Vision of brightening (jhalapisuva)    cleverness 
 Melting chest  throwing attractive good words
as though fascinated  in house work
 murmuring  ragalapa.(play of raga)
poetry lass’s  attractive dance
sound  of bangle’s   toe  ring’s dance(kshanitha………………..)
 love like this while sitting  near oven
ancient rushi kanya! Sweet mangala murty (welfareful statue)
 in path of life’s journey cotraveller and spirit
……………………………..end……………………………………….


One evening:
 In dusky green bed of  coconut garden
Charm of tired day is sleeping(lying down)
 Covering the world silent brightness
Soft embracement
The world is arrested   fallen

Like pit of supreme kindness rasa
Downing from evening eye
 Here is one  small pond twinkling
In twinkling lamp’s opened eye
Town’s house area
Desire of night life budding

As though seed of  light  sowd during  day budding
 As sky stars twinkling
Such jewel ornament world, that day within itself
 To Wonder of closing, mind is wondered!
……………………………..end……………………………….
Tear songLasrugana)
 Twinkling in eye border
In tears have heard
 Song of painful chest!
Rotating in sky
 Like dew drop twinkling
In stars,moon, planet
 I know by  hearing
 world’s  tear song!

 Why sea sounds like that
 Day and night epoch epoch
 Calling some body
 Opening chest’s pain
 this world is hearing

 night it’s thousand eye
opening for   rise of light
 like tear wanting for
dew drops in green
 shining thala,thala,thala

 to call of earth melting with compulsion
 tears of sky pouring
 drinking that green earth
 opening chest in words

 beauty comes from pain
 appears it seems
 from tears of selfishness
our blured eyes
can’t understand that!
………….end……………………………
-to  :(-ge)
On that day you alone came in much silence
Like river coming to  river joining
Today brought another new life
 Told that it is ours

 In garden of life mandara blossomed
 Filling fragrance in our chest
 We became bee to chest of that flower
What a weld!
Smile light of that flower became  star to us
In this path of endless journey
This bondage has binded  floating boats
Joy of kid!
……………………………………….end……………………………….

Raga of heart(tune of heart):
 O cautious o cautious
 Little one of chest depth
 In outside world under stone
Suffering plant

 Very soft  time being(temporary) you
Will break if touched
If inner decision awakens
Slowly if you rise up
Will break stone also!

Insect drilling mite
Covering body fear?
 To fading weak
 Not for growing you
You like valmiki
Come kid of  thunderbolt

 Treading your chest that
 Stone flat under you
 At the end becoming dust
 Will give strength to root next

 Mandara inside soil
got up now onwards
sky is waving hands
listen to that speech
leave sleep ,get up
…………………….end…………………………


Mother to her child:
 Near  my chest is  breathing my little child
 Welded your and my chest unseen bondage
 In my womb  arose  and came  from which world
 Today ours  ,coming to our world   since days

 As if there is no other way in door of my chest
 Sleeping  begging love alms  in little form
 Smile of my chest  blossoming itself  emiting as flower
 You blossomed and came near my chest like little child

Removing softness of  chest of flowers and flowers  like  done doll
Jompa(……………..) of new leaf as though slept  drinking  moon cool
You have slept by my   side eating (drinking)  chest milk
Like waveless    lake in  night of moon light

  Which figures are appearing  inside little chest
 Lost births coming births hundred life voyage
 Is appearing don’t know inside your breath
 I am asking  all lives(jivas) are” vessel of   love”

 Who are you why you have come in my stomach(womb)
 After coming you becoming  in my affectionate bondage
 Who what coming like this attracting our love grown
 ‘you are mine’ being called like this is great wonder!

 Before happening in my womb where were you there child?
 In which form  in which country in which name?
 In how many births  in how many epochs  In planet stars
 Rounded and came as though without knowing!

 All knowing strengthful like innocent weak
 Acting eating breast milk of my chest is desire to you?
I  Know every thing  at least now you have come near
 Like kindness of mahadeva  coming towards devotee by  itself!

Light –dust:
Closing doors of window was sleeping inside
thinking that  it has  become,got up
yes; it was morning.
 East end colourfully was shining
Night penance  was fruitful
 Mind celebrated ;   opened
 One window.!
  Bringing beautiful  heavenly ray
On that day enlightened room
 On seing light I wondered
In that washed  body bent(bowd)
In remaining windows also
Thinking that light comes
 Opened all doors  with over desire!

As I was seing
 From other directions
 blowing speedy  came a storm
carrying  dust  waste sticks with attacks
sounding in room raining wastes
 to light to come in ,with opened doors
 to through dust is  whose joy?
 One who gave light also throwd dust?
Let them lean  might be  there is   meaning
………………………………..end……………………………..

Ashada:
Moving moving moving moving
Line of clouds rushing  army attacks!
 Surrounding is shadow of shadow
Lives ,shadows
Unknowable  riddle!

 No sun no moon
No light no dark
 In mud of clouds buried
 greatness of rise and set

 in melt of  hundreds  of worries
tata pata .tata pata
in drinking is  archestra of dizling- constantly
world dumb
 grave yard of  disguist this world!

 In troubles of air  in tumult of  cloud
In mix of dizling caught paining world
When is relief
Incarnation of guru  of shravana is on which day
 Is waiting life in nest!
 Folding feathers ,closing eyes,in silence!
……………………………..end……………………………..

Broken life(bhagnajeeva):

 Found myself in standing  string pole like ghost
Beating wings of one kite in pity
River of clouds   of  ashada was flowing above
Below in field children play was running

 Lines and lines of strings  some how from pole to pole
Without  paying heed to sound  of kite shaking
Flowing,mad  wind  sounding  making kite to fear
Was dancing shaking  body of trees and trees

Being caught in air of ashada  kite has become  torn(dried up)
Mere stick body on bone has struggled with  death
 To tightening of fist neither coming down nor rise up
Being caught suffering   worrying  to dizling like rain

Once it was playing in   open field of sky
  Was making to run away in fear birds  which were coming near
 Friend kites got down  entering houses
 But by thread tear  have come fallen here

 Now many birds seing it’s position
Imitating  flying spreading  their wings
 Above walking black  cloud  has thrown water to face
 To give pain  to pained people is world’s play


Below kite’s holding thread  existing
 Forgetting itself  sky wandering valiant
 A fall to pride  like this  or bad luck
 Don’t remember past   we know that?

Some how   coming like this  side with sinful  yogi
 Is caught  in pillar again without shaking
 Which hand comes and tears bondage
 kite torn  even if opened how it rises above!

 Some how string has run from pole to pole
in   field of sky many kites  are playing
in field below children ‘s play   is moving without stop
 in  string pole kite is seen poor!
………………………………..end…………………………………….

On seing child:
He flows full of house floar
Became soft!

 Where he was , by him our
House filled
 Flower fragrance  filled up lake 
Mind became beaytiful

 What his laugh is scented sticks  smooth
 Line smoke(dhupa)!
 Like wte wood emiting  smoke
his anger !
 no body to hold his play is play
 he is king!

 his speech is with  sparrow
and crow
will wave hands calling  those who
walk on street
 is seing universal spirit  every  where
and living!

 How many days it will stay  sweet butter
 Innocent mind!
 To heat of life may melt into water, this
Sweet dream
What ever is present  is filling it up
 My mind!
…………………………………..end…………………………………………

In door:
Along with rising sun one new worry
Is appearing daily
Even though sun sets without drowning
Standing with roots  in my chest
In existing stars  stretching thousand buds
 Creeping day and night
Like a stone falling in street
Only weightful under road roller
being caught this life itself   shaking in upset

 hundreds of pain’s insect  around head nest
 flying murmuring drilling
 in doubtful  spiders   net mind
 responding like an insect

 crain of life store  eaten by rats
rotening is mere  hollow(jollu)
in ocean of pain  dissatisfaction and poverty
 broken boat life swinging
which  storm  sounding from distance
blowing coming

 which good fearless  speech today is
speaking  coming to my  house door!
 Don’t be upset  be patientceful mind
Will protect all  no doubt about this

What speech what a speech
For smallness  thunder bolt hit!
 Who speaks like this? Haridasas!
 Serious face (seal) in joy of singing
 Seing something great like drinking it
Semi closed eye lid tamburi on shoulder

 Song is spilling:
 ‘Don’t be upset  be patient mind
 will protect all no doubt  about this’

I became begger in front of   those who came for begging
opening begging bag(bowl) of my chest by myself
they moved  further  pouring song!
………………………………….end……………………………………….

To mother:
Like a creeper blossoming  a beautiful flower
You are with smiling child
One white cloud holding in lap


 My gold gold aparanji kattani
 How many times called child!
 Filling richness of chest  in sweet kiss
Unless poured ,no cool .what love!

 Every day worshipping  your desired god
 Like a devotee  fogeting himself
In it’s decoration you forgot your self
Like a child in doll’s  play!

Shining in your eye is kindness moon
Dipping child is  living like a star!
Love of ruling world  kind of appearing  in body
In wonder silence like sky!
…………………………………end……………………………….

Revolutionist:
 see came he is a small storm!
outside  inside of house  his  attack only
a thing does not exist  there  in his  province
 as though two extra legs    have come to  him
 house substances are  here and there(disarranged)!

 Fully (chubby)  orange cheek ,lightning
Laughs son revolutionjst!
In shining tender eyes filling up moon light
 Bringing and pouring into house field
If he wakes up  whole body of house awakens
When he sleeps to house cover’s drowsiness!

‘Flute is melodious  veena is melodious
 Those who have not listened to childern’s words’
 Said one tamil poet.truth of his
 Words is coming to experience  in front of him!
Meaning of his words  god only knows
Unclear like lyrics!(bhavageethas)
 So in law of chandamama friend of cat dog
Beyond our worlds knowledge
 His ethics is different his  sincerity (niyathi) is different
Holds line of divine world.

Great great scholars  higher books
licks and tastes by tongue!
 However much   all are uninterested
Tears throws with negligence!
  Whole house plays with him in  love
 Black screen of years  obstructing us
 Moving brings and gives beauty of childhood
By his  only one smile

 If anger comes  who will prevent him?
Incarnation of rudra!
 Laughing ,making to laugh kid
 Senior distributer of chest’s love

 Between her and me  bridge of expresed  love
 He is magician. Thread holder welding two lives!
…………………………….end……………………………


 Desire of river (stream)
To unseen sea mind is desiring
 Can I see one day?
Can I  join sea one day?

Unseen sea’s  sounding cradle song
Is heard by inner ear
My imagination   it’s  own  sea
Is figuring  thinking  sighing
Where it is?
How it is?
Can I see one day
can I join sea one day!

 Even thousands of river fill up  and flow
Is remaining same!
 Blue extended waves  shining
Serious sea I am!
 Fore water
 Excess
 Can I see sea one day
In that shall I not melt  melt one day

Tough forests ,wicked paths
Flowing river I am!
 On some day  unseen sea
Cain I join?

That punya(good deed) for ever
  Time for ever
In that ratna garbha(womb of ratnas) of sea love
Shall I join 
Blue of sea
Shall I melt?
………………….end…………………..
On seing sea:
 Desire of seing sea sea    was  flowing in my mind
 After completion of twenty three  years  on the day of seing you
At last  many days  your view (vision) was got sea
Today  have come in front of  you by god’s grace

 Your bhuma (greatness)  grand figure I had rised in mind
 Your sound in my imaginatory ear  and heard
 Today I saw  filing up  came my mind’s   desire
 Fir found joy desire of  singing in my tone to me!

Where ever you see blue blue water upset(disturbance)
Blue water below  above blue  bottom as though vision fails?
Every where blue  sign of bhuma is only blue
 you are appearing to my eyes  blue brahma!

 What a noise what a heat  in your womb!
Your sound of raga is  sound of  rudra veena
 Pralaya bhyrava worlds  and worlds  treading dancing
 For this dance  of   tandava  you are putting tala  (rhythm) of waves!

Expressesd form of  nada(sound) brahma your  veda sound!
 Sounding to  awake worlds and worlds  sleep of  fascination
 World poet writing  singing poetry of  spirit
What ever happen what ever go  non stop sound!

 Are you doing prayer of   creater?
 To your prayer  I am mixing my prayer
 Daily prayer’s true spirit namaskarams to you
 In your sound  my tone mixing  desire to  me

 Before I coming to you  you were sounding
 I coming standing   seing you are  sounding same
Even if I go  as usual  you sing  like this only!
In blue sky’s  to grand  chest  of silence speaking

What a play what a hunt  to your waves  bank
 Every minute  dashing  to bank and bankdesire to them!
Even in years  and years  pass endless  play
 To female   Earth and male  sea  endless visit!

 Even in small work of  grand artist  beauty completing
  Coming like   sea, shells  are falling coming  !
 In womb of    sea    pearls ,ratnas  why won’t come like this?
 Shells and pearls ratnas their own  prestige to them

 Waves chavaries  instruments  sounds ,you are really king
Your seriousness your vastness  who else others have?
 Like earth  to earth’s kings  you are not dasa(servant)
 Your kingship  your grandure  is  reserved for you!

 Above blue blue chest  of water crores of   boats float
 Are going to see  on tip of waves resembling grass!
 Once waves throw off you  it’s position(fate) is over
 Like sparks of adventures  of man they are floating sees

On dawn of sea  on smooth sand  I wrote  my name!
 One wave  chasing other wave  kind of running  forward
 With wonder stood  seing  play of waves
 Ayyo saw waves rushed under  my  legs!

The wave coming rushed  slashed (dashed) to bank!
 My name written  on sand became   nameless  in a minute
 Worrying about  loss of name  some thing happened to mind
 To my foolishness  shying to myself I saw me and  laughed!

 By seing you in your form  I melted
Seingagain blue blue water you became  everything
!
 In your sound  my chest’s sound  merged together
 In front of you   to myself nothing remained

Reason(nepa):
 From neighbours  radio’s  chest sound  of veena
 Floating as waves  and waves  is coming
 Who is playing what if anybody play
In chest of listeners  it’s melody is there

 Aha listen playing a tragic song
 Playing all songs of chest
at depth of heart  hundreds of pains sighing
 flowing this raga  producing rasa!

 Song stopped there    night became silent
 Like child  listening  to cradle song!
 Still in my heart  playing  is that veema!
 Like churning  frozen  heart!

 By listening to  some song  why heart  responds?
 What is relation between that and this!
 Filled up heart  to spill it’s pains
 Waiting for reason standing!

 Burning coal  furnace?(oven)  cooling covered by ashes
 Keeping some goal  and pressing  pump
To imitate  the flame song reason
Irritates  the flame some reason
Irritates again lifting chest pains

Broomstick is my guru.and also aim of life.

 With other people  for war field
Went off .in early morning .
How much ever  I am strengthless   lass
 Send him off  in much  silence


Another woman’s chest has embraced
Now in endless  black night!
Next for ever for war field
He can’t walk  in early morning
Why  means she is his mother
Mother earth has embraced without leaving
In her chest!
………………………………….end…………………………………

To slipped flower:
From her rich knot flower fell  below
From yamini’s knot like star!
 I went behind  picked it up
What beautiful was  jasmine flower

Fragrance of her hair mixing  with fragrance of flower
Was spreading fragrance  in heart!
What a stone hearted forgetting such flower
She walked out in much pride!

The youngster wearing this flower walks at distance
Without knowing that flower has fallen
Leaving apsara  like deathful and deathless  (marthya  and amarthya)child
 Flower is nobody to ask (directionless)

After reaching house  will  that youth  worry
  For slipped flower? I don’t know
I repent for this whose thing it is
 Is it not a wonder that it attracts  our heart!
…………………………………..end…………………………………………

Broken beauty:
Like chariot of youth you came floating
Praised in front of me went forward
After you went I pitied for you
In much silence!

Pressing the horn of years drilled line ring
 Thinned chins,sighing reduced lips existence
Applying colour,snow, powder carrying beauty
shining method  pitied for you!

River flowing towards sea turning
 In flower   desire of refilling flied   away  fragrance
Is it possible in life?

O broken beauty
 By seing you   I  pity and stand
Civilization of culture of epochs and epochs
Remembering sorrowful story of renaissance
 with long sigh!
………………………………..end……………………………
Union:this is union of life
Which mountains desire of linga in this way
Came as jangama and united!
Searchinh each other coming    two  spirits
Here life became one
What wave what soundless(nirghosha)!
 From that bank to this  bank
From this bank to that bank
Very serious is force of flood!

Wood piece ,dirt,sticks caught in force
Inside that
even jada (nonmoving,achethana) comes in whirl of spirit!
 As though has got spirit(chethana)
Some how falling somewhereroten life
Attaining god’s grace
Moving in flood
This is old(senior) spirit walking towards sea
    Those who walk towards great will become great see!

flood kingcarry and make reach my desire of heart
to that murmuring  front water
I would have  become four drops of water
I would have combined   and come with you
See we are people
By filling  hundred dreams sighing is our condition(fate)
………………………….end……………………………….

Sankranthi(good revolution):
The festival of day time jathra
Sun joined western temple
rolling in valley of dark ,paining
like stream(river) of light,evening
devil of fear as though  opening jade
standing is great   old banyan tree
in branch and branch  like om manthra
many bats hanging
mind feared by seing that view
magic of dark covering   world!

Minute becoming epoch(yuga) mind  blessed(wished)
Desiring for bud of light
Sky of disappointment spirit of desire
Like this seing at star
Twinkling,blossomed from pond of darkness
Like a flower of light
 Monks appeared  poured light
As though world wondering
Dark melted  downing in light
Only light spread  growing crowing

 Flower of light desiring for  bandanu(……………………..)
 Went bees of dark
Floating for desire amrutha  pot
 Demons threw arrows
Like that one by one bats
From tree  towards moon
Flying flying at last became one
In month’s grace of light
mInd  wondered by kind of view
unexpected  sankranthi’s grace!
…………………………………end……………………………..

Waves:
Aha  waves of pond
Sky colour giving kiss
Smooth cheeks  little once
 What a run what a play
In kulu  kulu    laugh
 Some  speech you are talking
In ear of whirl air!

Pond  got smile
Coming nearer children
mind of pond speaking  to bank
loveful words
in morning  evening
sky painting  colour dancing
various dancers
from that bank to this bank
walk with enthusiasm
but stone of bank
hit simply to  chest!

Is only this much your walks goal?
Can  we understand your kind!
 What ever may be that secret
You are blessed
Moon light coming dancing
Star satisfied by seing
 Blowing wind singing dancing
 Rasa filled life
 is fruitless at end!
……………………………………end………..

 To sri vivekanda:
 Wearing by Ramakrishna ‘s divine yoga bow
You are brahmasthra
Internal strength of universe
Expressing  as statue downing to earth
Decision  power you are
Splitting  fort of doubt  fixing
 flag of  sharaddha( sincerity,interest)
  desirer of success(vijugeeshu)
bringing shivaganga from hill of  paramahamsachala
flowing to whole  world  yoga purusha
what you touched became gold divine man

your speech touching  shell breaking in it
those who had hiden came uot
thinking insect  those who slept arose
 like kula hillrising head towards sky standing up
waves of seven seas put rhythm
directions sang  success song!
East and west  embracing one another
Found  divine heart meaning!

 Between earth and sky stood as  mahantha
Let endful  dissolve in ganga  under your feet
………………………….end…………………………….


Kaveri(near sriranga pattana):
To yoga sleep of ranganatha
Mangala sound giver(doer)
Stretching two arms  sriranga
Embracing in arms

Though one becomes two only one at last
Shower of   this  tatva!
In waves waves of  water veena
 Singer of high samagana!

  Surrounding  Rised and fallen state’s  remnants
Swinging cradle song  in sweet  words
To pained child  mother looking after
Appearing

 Coming down  from brahmagiri
Passing through  hill forest
  Making to laugh   bayalunadu  walking
 In layers layers  of wet and field
 Writer of  green poetry
Walking towards  sea with anger
 You nithya ragini( eternal raga player)
by singing only reach goal
 melting in black sea
………………………………..end……………………….

In kannambadi:
 Flood of ten directions have come and met
Power arrested in   dam of control
 Sounding water  mass is rushing in  hole
Shall I call that’ water ‘? Sandy of revolution!

Below in brindavana  dancing colours
 Fountains ! union of views of  world
Wonderful! For  praising  very easy
For appreciation  becoming  fit
In hole  flowing distant  in mid wet lands
Creating green  breath of magic
      View of swinging  golden crops
Apart from appreciation  has become
One among  daily  general  facts!
In general (common) form  appearing body
Without greatness appreciation
 Is  submitting  to dancing  little colour!

Invitation:
Get down  come o light
