Selective translation of poetry of Dr G S Shivarudrappa, National poet, to English by Dr Raveendra, Hosadurga


Dr shivarudrappa g.s. part 3 Lpart 2 continued)
(from   ‘open path’(tereda dari) poetry collections)
From dark to light:
Hold my hand  make me to walk from dark to light
Prayer  flowd  coming from  beyond
For filled up  aviveka  endless pain
For that only  continuous request for  light

 From darkness to light
Make me to walkthough asked from dark to dark
Walked  and came here
Holding lamp  sat waiting  for path of deepavali
Even if tried to touch light at last dark removed
Shall I wait for  believing  in broken lamp filling oil, wick?

From dark to light
did you come, come deepavali to your eye vision
jiva(life) came to this lamp ,became festival  for life
from earth to sky  skeleton of light creeper
born out   bud-flower—fruit star sun moon

day and night surrounding  rotating light present
does not get down    into  why  wishing and waiting!
Roadful furnace  fire for sound of  hammer
what if  we run    in fear   holding  beating straight

dark has followd  that it will surely do
still for continuous  request
hold my hand  make me to walk  from dark to light
………………………………….end…………………………

Song of  failure:
At different places, stretching sondilu(trunk)
Elephant has no  control(ankusha)
Chariot tied to wild horses   
 Has no  subordination of path

In spite of so many lamps burning around
Darkness  not avoided (present)
In spite of cleaning  house daily , broomstick
Has no leasure

If anybody corrects  proof copies
No end to blindness
Hhow ever muchhhh rubbed  to base of leg
Mites did not leave

At thhhe fixed centre of rotating wheel
No strengthhhh to stand
Facing   Sounding grinding  life
No challenge to win .

In paachi (………………….)   stcken  blind path
Slipimnhg not avoided
Through  out path  to song of failure
No end at all
…………………………….end……………………………

To  first poet(to adi kavi):

For first time  having found sun rise
You became dumb
Listening melody of  first koel
You became romantic

For first time blending chest to beauty
You ate rasa
The sweet relation which you  matched on that day
Is kamadhenu for remaining poets

For first time to lame language
Magician creating eagle feather
Composing onee’s  roll by oneself
 Flowing great flood of monsoon

Who are you what is your name
You are first adikavi than valmiki
In page of dark writing work(art) of deepavali
You melted  away.
……………………………….end…………………………

In black nightLkarirulalli):
I ran holding her hand in black night
In blind lanes without lampa
You detected allowing thunder –lightning
By weaving eye to  land and sky

Temple ,base of tree,roof, choultry
Nothing you hide from me
In  mid  street  slaping thrice,removing hand
Spit thundered you.come to house from here

I came bent  myhood and slept
Beats(tala) thamburi,dhupa (fragnant smoke) ,lamp
Now also desire:myself to myself
Can’t you leave  why are you  angry so much?
………………………………….end………………………….

Broken mirror:
In one way this whole life is
War of border land
Border of caste,border of ethics
Border of nation,border of language
Border of colours border of creed(pantha)

In step and step,in and outside
 Line mark border wall
Watching are  scholars and shastries(purohits)
Soldiers every where

Will you cross beyond? O  borderless
Logical arguments  noise  smoke of explosive bombs
Pained dying  suffering
Murder ,loot, robbery  view
In this  riot (galabhe)  roll and fall lincon,Gandhi kenedy
Like this from beginning  mirror is breaking

The lines and lines of this broken mirror
 Is mark of borderline
 How to see complete human face in this
Except any ugliness (change,vikruthi).

n middle of war:

in mid epochs(yugas)this religious war
Wound all  Over body
 In nerve and nerve hot blood  storm blowing.
Shaking only know horse climbing(riding)
In shining body,in snake lke run
Rising hills,downing ghats
Fighting along roads
At last some how was this caught here
In war field of this middle age
In mid middle.

Krishna gave preaching of geetha
In middle of mahabharatha
In between two armies in
Covered dark to this prtha
Light of krishna’s speech
For me , in middle of war
Vishada  yoga(condolence yoga)
Krishna  fortnight without Krishna
Degenerated(jarjharitha) chest

Dry forest:
Which seed will bud out here
In that dry forest
no softness there no moderateness(hada) there
  eagle of sunlight  attacking always
bald head of rock  pecking
which seed will bud out there
in this forest

which  seed will bud out  here
in this bank
in black salt sea
on the rock of bank
fear of devil’s sculpture drilling
broken pieces of ship
 shining mass   of  bones
being baked under sunfire
which seed will bud out- in this peopleless
forest  earth bank

which seed will bud out here
day and night barren air
blowing
through out day’royyo’rubbing sorrowful  tone
devil of dust-dryleaf dancing
at least one single  flower-opening smile
not attracting  kiss of bee nearer
on any daygreen spreading ups of chest
not embracing
which seed will bud out here
in this barren land!
……………………………..end…………………………..


Sankramana:
I was  by  myself some how
Time to time meals,later sleep
In the middle of cleaning dust,starting radio
Nodding to music for some time
Pushing some roti (bread)
To dog barking ‘bhou’
Later opening chainleaving it full of  compound
By asking security(ghurka) to not to allow anybody  to enter
In side daily  mill  as usual
Satvik food to parrot in cage

You came;I don’t know how you came
From where you came
Even barking of dog was not heard
Inside bolt how did it opened to which magic  I don’t know
Somewhere sound of air blowing
Ten twelve trees around
suddenly budding  out rushing  had rushed untimely vasantha army
got up sat,next if only sleep comes?

I was  some how
In this why did you  enter?
To all defects within me  by search light ahowd
Slept  desire by blowing pipe(pungi)
Into ear  by spreading hood
Opening the door of closed shop
Opened ,spread,thans and thans of cloth
bringing   storm –lightning-clouds- pouring rain
melted all by standing base
by rushing water into  god room
washed away  the photo  which I worshiped so far
under this monsoon eveningon wounded rolled
night without noise covered moon light.
…………………………………….end………………………………..

Jois by road side:
In my   hand  wetland  in lines phloud by fate
What is the crop I get shall I ask (meet)him?
   His today’s condition  brings pity to me
Will he open my  tomorrows?

Worry  phlough  lines did  land faced
This jois.
Inside spect  sitting on border of nose
Waterless bottom  found opening  well eye
Army of clouds concentrated ,many faces
Planets moovments he is telling
This poor fellow.

Where is tomorrow’s path ?
Beyond  covered   darkness  which gold ore
Sounding sea’s tip which  new port
Beyond thorn fence which  divine(nandana) garden
Beyond this sounding  storm  base of which  dream

Must be there something  sitting in front of him stretched  hand
To everyone grand future!
Seing hand spinning dices(kavade) reading old leaf
Book,multiplying something,to these
People telling future,spent
His three fourth’s of  longevity of life

To so much of people ,the worry about future
Is the support for  his  present life!
His this daily future forecast system
Sigh has no  other solution.
………………………………….end………………………………….

Enough stop your  samagana:
Through out country  we by building dams
What we have grown is  only hunger?
Land and wet landsfull by rising crop what swings?
Green or  sigh?

From plan downing to worry (thought)
At bottom mud,intellect is buried
Existing grains all
penance in   deep dark
siddhi –gold dream

in front of open shop from morning till evening
meditation on single leg
below eagle eye  rising-downing balance
under shadow hungry silence

did deepavali come ?into many lamps  
no oil
only striking  sticks of   mere  speech
are you not ashamed?
…………………………end……………………………..

Repair:
Somewhere some joint dislocated inside
By that day only is this mismanagement(disarrangement)
From time to time  knowing giving key
If maintained would there be this conditi

To which ever shop you show only this much
It’s original is not in stock
Even if we write there,not available
Repair is not possible now

If you want we will set right to some extent
  Some how you can pass days
In this world tell which is permanent
Even star can get rusted

The wheels of sun moon how much they have weared and teared
Rotating daily like this  in blue
On some daythey    will  also get spoiled
Will come and fall  in  gujari (wastage)
 
For time being running is sir
This machaine  let it be safe for  few days
I tell what I found :inside all  machaines
There  lies(exists) some split(chidra,defect)
………………………………….end…………………………………..

To saraswathi:
O mother saraswathi
In your strings of veena
Spider net has been oven
Under your feet
Rats  and rodents  have joined
The book in your hand
Mites have eaten half

To your bells of temple
are getting rusted
o mother saraswathi
what is this bad condition!

O mother saraswathi
In  shadow  of your back
Business  is running
In your name see
‘hamsa yajna’has taken place
Group of purohits  wearing
Black shawl is shining
In false reason of pouring oil
Pulling burning wick
Injure  and does
Offerings (naivedya) to you

O mother saraswathi
What a bad condition!
Rise up as kali
posses   shula mother
if you become stone like
this ,whom to tell?

Daily story:
This is keeping cool all your heat
Wetting in rain ,in refrigirater  always
In freezing show scissor
Cutting into pieces  uppinakayi(condiment) covering
Cooking  scholarhood:to pure silk
Nusi  hidisi(……………………)using it as waste cloth
Deciding it’s correct rate,announcing skill
Putting axe to  plant in backyard(hitthilu) flowerless,
Budless, fruitless ,   barren tree
Like this bill sticking  skill ,daily
This slow  murder art  noiselessly
Dead thousand faces in  pit of tears
Is shining this  creeper of chanukya seed.

Dasa pantha(group of servants   of god):
Standing at door smiling faceful
Is there permission to come in sir-telling
Slowly(low tone)
What is hahib doing-
Drinking tea  along with group(family members)
Happy story funful
Or putting signature to papers
In urgency ,is he in  wicked protecting
Punishing good people  technique
Incarnation plan,Samadhi(trance) state
Standing like this outside the door
In meditation
Don’t you hear even if shouted loud
Consoling like this

Rubbing hands ,correcting  coats collar
Weaving   three  metros in house and brought kirthana
Remembering ,
  Coughing slowly,tuning tamburi
According to desired type bhukthi emotions
Which is the road –to promotion?
vote,mata,minister
Who is favourable to you among  these three
Enquiring merits demerits  having
Faith only in  name’s strength,
Opening mouth to request
Tying bag of infinet desires
Waiting at other’s doors,in firm mind progressing
You dasa varenya
dasa kula  head bead
dasa means yourself
this kind of fineness  I don’d in others.

Mini –poetries:
Friend-enmy:
Few are there  dear friends to me
Still exists  one enemy
That he is myself!

Saw of love:
to saw of love doubt is tooth
misunderstanding is sharpening(sane)!
Without cutting the loved oncesnever seen exception!

On day of ugadi:
See came new year  in tree tree
Joy flower bud
 I have fallen near door of day and night
Rug to rub the leg

Sorrow –joy:
For joy without touch of saltish tears
Don’t desire o   fool(dullard)
There is sorrow fruit, in your opposite late
Peel joy is it’s  skin(sippe)!

Owner of problems(bhanganatha):
Thorn bed,pillow of burning coal
Blanket of smoke
 Embrace of kavery
O bhanganatha which  karma is this
Why are you caught in this!

Between two darks:
Before lighting lamp In covered  dark only one worry;
It is dark.next light needed
When lamp is off in covered dark only one wonder
Where  did so much of lights  of lamp go!

Between two peaks:
In between two peaks  rope way
below black forest valley on single rope
Walk of domba’s play  till leg slips
No worry later?only god knows!

Joy:
Blossoming smiling  behind flower
Shadow of sickle
Around  moon light of sky border monsoons  roll (hang).

Spirit(inspiration)-talent:
Calf of inspiration  keeping mouth yo udder of talent
Milk of word-meaning  downs into  poet vessel

Closeness:
In play of (sports)  for a moment what a closeness
To leg and football!
Between love and anger turning rolling life
Will see and sigh long even today

Tragedy:
Body broken into hundreds of  pieces
 How can I search for?
In fallen remnants of  of aeroplane?
 Thousands of people walking on  on ground level are safe
It became a blunder to rise in the sky.

Morning in evening:
This sun set who baked,troubled through out day
Became evening  to us.
Full of sky one by one eye
Opening these starsbecame morning
Light swallowing lightstanding
Wonderful morning.

One evening:
Came,came cheetah lifting paw
sucking the red blood of neck of evening
has slept.twinkling  black spots of body
tree,plant, house –mata all swinging body
failing eye,tail bent dog dusky silence
rail at distance is sounding kuu
like a fox field is sweating vibrating
……………………….end……………………..
In road without lamp:
In lampless road walking ,walking
Has become a practice to us
People tell first there was very bright
Scintillating lamp.we also
Remember lamp existing
New are present  four to six
Lampless poles as record
We are also eye accustomed with  dark
Fading old memory felt.if we
Ask now rather than giving blind lamp ,dark is better.

Valmiki:
Surrounding is grown huttha(snakehouse)
I am in bottom of  bottom sighing long
Dark dark;at height is  melting somewhere light
From window of bila(hole)
How did it grow this huttha around me!
Slept on some day  when awoken
Inner plan of mites up to bone and bone
Layers and layers of  intellect and mind
Holes and holes.for which rushi
 kamandala(vessel)   water  thirtha
 melting for spraying (sprinkling)falls
 around is smeared huttha of dark
at bottom of bottom I exist
day and night waiting sighing long.
……………………………end…………………….

Exploitation:
No you have no satisfaction
Exploiting my whole ,making
Nameless no satisfaction.my
 House-mata land,wet land
Which I by phlouhing,seeding
Stamding rised crop
Land ,wet land all to your fire steps
Is over hot smoking
On white shining mass of bones lamp of tears.
In circles is burning your  this throne
statue of destruction,around
around standing is flag lifting your  smoke fame.
…………………………..end……………………

Personality :
This earth inevitably
Has to round around sun
Only two parts(portions)
Half light
Half dark
To me also
Always to my  half portion day
Remaining half dark
Closes as night
Opens as day


In this play of opening and closing
Seen is unseen
Unseen is seen
Only eye closing play
Between light and dark ,continuously
Pendulum oscillation of clock.

From seed to seed:
From seed to seed
It’s journey
One becoming ten,ten hundred
Hundred becoming thousand
Like this becoming countless
Towards infinity
It’s way


From seed to seed
In between how many trees
How many leaves,how many flower
How many fruits!
All soil
This one seed  at last again
To become seed.


From seed to seed
How many bodies
How many buds-small (little)-branches along
Song of cradles,hundreds of steps
How many protections of days,nights,seasons
Carrying   so  many rasas
To eye, ear, nose ,tongue
Giving taste  at last leaving  all to soil
At end  as a memory,   as tears
As  story,as poetry
Becoming  book  full of library
 Again one becoming ten,ten hundred
Becoming lakhs and lakhs together
Falling into land ,rising again
Rising to tip of tree and tree
Again becoming seed
 Becoming ,meeting  point in  itself
Both  past and future
From seed to seed
from seed to seed
it’s journey
“this old (sanathana) is immovable”

Blerb(hinnudi):

This is also wanted this also is wanted
All are wanted to me
hundreds of paths  to palace of light


 I don’t want any problems of  of siddhantha(theory)
 I don’t have this only  is right ,this only  is wrong challenge
I know these are all
 One one step of rising up


Hundreds of well of emotions(feelings)
Lift  how much sweet water  you need
Why to fight about shape of vessels?
What we want is solution of thirst.

Invitation (avahane):
Some where at distance  dizling drops
Come come as forceful rain
Let dried rivers ponds fill up spill
Let new green arise  smoothly!

Some where at distanceleaking tones
Come come as rasa songs
Set of instruments sleeping in silence
Play over as good  figure!

Some where at distance star leg chains
Come come as  hombogaragi(…………………………….)
Budding  smile of lamps and lamps
Twinkling enlighting in and out

Some where at distance  star  leg chins
Tying  dancing steps
Come to my chest do dance
Let fountain of joy  emit

My love:
No, great expectation in my love
No kumbhadrona musala (onake) flow
to noiseless dizling drops of  shravana
spreading out feather enjoys green wet land

no colourful dream of gift  chariot coming
no invitation of  instrumental music
if cool embraces   as ‘you are mine’
parijatha stands  pouring flowers!

Not needed to this  now and then abhisheka of panneer
  Enough  if there is no  axe talk
Smooth creeper baked in hot summer  needs
Rooting hand stretched  dependence

 No to my love any colour of greatness(mahime)
 No dresses and wears of silk
Wheather yes or no yes or not
humble generality  you have doubt!

In bus:
In whole bus attracted eye
Only on jasmine
That also round jasmine

Again on it’s back
Only two green leaves
 Surrounding it is shining(twinkling)
full knot background

at place of branching
a jasmine has blossomed
 in pit of dark hairs
boat of streak of moon light
 shall I call  floating!

Below filled neck side
 Passing on border(saree)
Thatand this side two jades
Oscilating show off(fancy)

As kalasha(holy vessel) attracted eye
That only flower jasmine
Was it on that side  don’t know
Wearing face’s smile

Got down from bus some where
Flower went further
But still lingers in eye
That one round jasmine
Along with me always comes
It’s fragrance slowly

Sharanu(surrender):
Wandering here and there at last to your lap
Wandering in ten directions at last to bed (nest)

I standing shining as hills and hills
Blue sky becoming chest embracing your love

As streams and rivers  I flowing with sound
Your sea’s masters  lap ,shining singing cradle song

As waves of sounding sea  I rushing  spoiled(malethu)
Sand bed of your base standing me under control

As star  and planets I illusing daily
Your silence our chest’s tying to make garland

Rising tune wave  walk again at end
Like coming to  pallavi again ,sharanu at your feet

Prayer:
Don’t come ,come and don’t disturb
Forest     he buffalo(kona)  nail clean ponds
On coming don’t spread the eagle’s wings
In silence of neelagiri  paks

Don’t come please  in womb(uterus) of temple
Around budding lamp as  fly hopper(midath)
As cockroaches in crevices of  mats benches
Pass on  and spoil naivedya

Don’t rush into lands as bulls
Don’t break tender buds
At sleeping time don’t eat
Foods  as rats and rodents
Foods saved for tomorrow

I am not Buddha or siddha to fight and win
Why is your attack  upon me?
(Is in your relief  my release also)
Please kindly submit  requests (prayers)

Along road:
One,two, three,
Along road I constructed

To workshop I did!

One,two,three
Along road spread of statues
Hit,squashed by me!
even  ghajani mohamad
might have shyed

Now also as I walk further
View of destroyed hampebehind me
Building destroying destroying building till end?
Till I hold  hold carve a big

To poetry:
No can’t write further
Can’t open heart
In your expectation
Can’t push days

No can’t hold  further
That twinkling hammer
Later I can’t invest

Broken,fallen around
Can’t search for sparks

No no ,don’t to me
Bondage of your grace
Why your subordination
Spirit of poetry is labile (unstable).

Enough for me that bank’s leaf hut

Let her not be near protection

If she is always thirst
The sword of her lightning eye
Protection  from piercing  needed
By her breath’s burning flame
Must stand away beyond

Dragging me near
In pool of moon light
Dipping method her’s is
No no don’t,further

Curves of iron

In front of her eagle eye
Serpent won’t play hood open
The bead of it’s hood!
No,no,no she

By leaving distance  distance
Moving attracts her
Silk thread of gold formula of magnet!

Passing under thorana
Rising oon door steps
In road of  raingod!always comes her
Pride(attahasa) of success

Enough for me that banks leaf huts protection

Waved hand called your smile,mmoonlight
Desiring for style how came near
What is seen!frowned eye brow
Of black clouds!before coming
Standing near you this burning eye
Of negligence instead of eating stiffness
 Your that cool of  moon was very fine

Not this negligence  of union ,enough
Send me to goodluck of  my separation
Make me to forget that I came near
You types
Wandering is joy blessing your presence!

Rangoli of hundred stars

In mind of leaf and leaf of tree  and tree!

Now you are not in house

Guests:
Day before yesterday  only went guests
Leaving this house
Drilling it’s chest!

They came without telling  asking
They did not drop even a letter that they are coming
A week back  came by themselves
Rushed inside
With very much ease!

Before yesterday only  went uests leaving this house
drilling it’s chest.
At least two months are needed
Again this house   to stand as before
To win earlier health
Some how guests went

 No uninvited (aganthukas) as they came
 Without as though getting tax to come road

keeping to watch around   ,doctor bill  medicine bottles
went before yesterday  only went

on open instrument of coconut leaf
moving dizzy
figure playing sobane
no variety,breathless play
this is symbol of which worry   separation tone
this peculiar raga  ,this abhava geetha (feelingless geetha)
………………………….end……………………………

Fifth part of shakunthala:
Treading path of doubtful  fire
Newly married lass passing beyond main door of palace
When came and stood  in burning court
In well versed  faces curves of questions!
To people who brought  thorn of wonder
Some worry in chest of  person who held hand ,forgot
Who is she?no light of answer to question
Smoke covered forest fire between sacrifice  smoke!

Smearing ring figure feared  weak lady(abale)
Broken bridge no way
Will boat of memory swim avross  roaring flood
Curvedlaughs  sound around
Fixed  arrows around  missed direction of deer
After pumping off of lamp in temple corner
standing lamp woman!
Hook of back and front detached sliding pearl
Is it possible to tie in garland?

Where is answer to question from city to kanvashrama  doubtful night
Stone and thorns   in mother house path!
Only in that shachitheertha  in world of fishes
some bud thinging in and out!
……………………………end………………………………..

 Difference:
Present yesterday not today
That(he) is venkataraya
Here climbing bicycle  in front of eye
Went towards market (pet)
Again did not come.

Shall I say  say did not come ,came his body
Somewhere in border of  that street
Evening he had  fallen.
Evening time ,others with pity
Pated water.
The watch in hand  only was  responding
Chest stagnant!
In vehicle brought hi to house
In house there was no  house owner-that is all.
If seen in big  factory
Like lack of current due to cutting of wire
Without light where rotation of all stagnant  silence

Yesterday   he was there not today
Only this is difference
Suddenly did he here some telephone and went off?

If he leaves things here and
There only and go what kind
Of journey it is?
Filling spilling is this festival around
Is moving as though nothing has happened!

Dumb child wondering sitting on bank of river
water,water,water,
sounding water
dust, sticks are floating  rising
along with red water
how much has it come how much gone
who has kept all these  documents(records)
…………………………………end……………………….

Sharade:
this is sharada!
in eyes of white bird  coming
her story is written like this


snow of magi(winter) in milk cradle opening
eye grown beauty
in chariot offlowers of chaithra month
is her procession!
Wearing colourful saree of silk striped
Lass amazing  all directions!
In neck swing of lakhs of birds
Swinging innocent


After vessel of sky filling,moving   her bath
wears of thunder ,lightning’:correcting nama in sea mirror
if spoken breath of storm
if any body can talk  to her rising  eye standing!


After coming to husband’s house
Climbing chariot of mango –neem
 Always to free cover  of thread of rain
Even in kitchen of smoke  cloud was
spread her cool eye light!
 
In the middle  few days no laugh in  face
Silent disenthusiasm;tumult of cloud  head full
Meaningless poetry,mud wher  ever  kept  leg
I asked what is cool long  sigh
Sharada came sharada
If she breaths green if she talks ‘julu julu’
If tread ,flower jasmines knotful

On thhhat dah onhce kali;later gowri;now  she is sharada
Stripe sarees  joined box 
now she likes whites clothes.mind is
thala thala blue ;full of that  dreams  of kailasa
standing I land and wet land  crops bunches  lips
she kisses   and feeds milk ;lifts anhhd plays

now she is sharada-always peaceful ,pure smiling
serious,brightful,krouncha kvanithe(…………………………………)
 namasthe to you.

Purusha suktha:
To him thousand eyes,thousand  hands,thousand legs
Thousand heads,new bharatha purusha!
He hhas rised up and stood
From ground to sky!

At feet is stammering sea;in head
Bold silence of hima peaks
Through out body various folks;
In nerves and pulses in responding blood

His hhhands there presses  peaks
Ganga falls along  land flowing!
His fragnance  of breath  touching buds  soil
In udders fills  up  milk!

He opening eyes thousands of lampsin –house  house
 Friendship-faith-kindness  love
In letters of stars his manthra words
Even if fallen no fear

His moon rays touching tone budding
Veena,tambura,inspiration for poet!
By his division of ‘bhru’ state revolution
It’s fame in news  paper pages

His voice is cautioning hills and ghats
Exploding breathing is centuries of  metal sleep!
Roaring rivers in figure of dams
Has made to stand in his guesture

In  waterfalls  falls his smile
Smile of twinkling lamps lips
In hundreds of radios his ragas  magic(modi)
In hundred steps his leg chain!

In machaine pride(attahasa) his strength sound
His names in rised up building!
In silent achievements of  research  centres
Oscilates his breath inspiration!

Clock’s rotate by him.ships
Floating with  chest bloat by him
Caution to eyes of border of protection  by him
Wing of aeroplane flying by him

To him thousand eyes,thousand hands  Thousand legs
Heads thousand.new  bharatha purusha(man)
He has rised up and stood in everybody’s chest
From ground to that sky!
……………………………..end…………………………..

Magha jinafirst rooted uot all
Fell under feet  sum of dry leaves
Grew around huttha( snake house) of silence

Attracting rasa of branches branches
stalk detached all holdings
heart became  dumb to responses (thudithas)

the sky above the head cleared
non emotional ,waveless, blue ocean
night’s sky  rathnas open  hood snake!

Evening morning pearl spilling light
Around silverful gold smoke(dhupa)
Nacked silent hearing meditation form!
