1)sky
basket:
1
Smoke

Laugh filling
In colour
colour exciting paper basket
Filling
life’
Believing
hope that it will fly far
Our great
desires keeping burning kakkada(panju,lamp)
Giving form
to enthusiastic adventure
To
above(upper) land have allowd to float sky basket of
spirit(chethana)!
Wheathers
rises
Or falls
In hit of
air tilts and rolls
Gets body
burnt,
Falls in
unseen (unseeable) pond depth
Who have
seen it?
Not knowable
moderateness(hadanu)!
But
still made it fly!
Has enthusiasm of boyhood knows
end?

In
brightness of sky opening chest
Tearing
thread of subordination of earth’s life
Floating
above seing with own eyes
My variety
of desires getting wings
That day
eating(experiencing) light even in
darkness
Growing
pearls sowd in clouds
Desiring
milk(tender) grains are flying friend!
There !see

Running
behind star goal moving little lamp

Has
embraced star see!

Here
joy of beauty is bound

Poor man composed sky basket
Treading storm
attack of demons
Embracing
humans has become one see!
Did you see
poet?
One which is
not for upfaced(urdhvamukhi) is it
suitable for others?
In front of self power is any other strength?
Like sky basket (akashautti) though alone

chest golden lamp getting enlighted

sing song like this!

Becoming
dirty on touching in pearl of snow drops
As though reflecting
completeness(totality) og freation
Sweet love
of soft chest melting becoming tears
As though
spilling (wabling) in female’s eye border
Only if
little (whirl)air emits and comes
enough
as though
creeper embracing tree wables

which we talk be like this friend
soft words
win three worlds friend
breaking bud
of silence let speech blossom and come

12) Friendship: by poet chennaveera
kanavi:
Friendship’s vast spread under banyan(tree)
Have settled in cool
of cool shadow;
Endless durbhara(…difficult to fill ).Hard pains and
sorrows of life
Heats I have swallowd in silence
friendship is amrutha
to this world
except that what is there in life-dead while living!
Here no cheating no fickleness(minded) even a little
No differentiation of
above and below(superior and inferior)
No reason of ego
hatred character no
First of all there is no smallness hesitation
Mind is sky broad,chest clear pond like
Feeling pure
alum(spatika)- moon light !
Tastier than salt more relative than mother
No this proverb word I have heard
Purity and taste of
friendship is higher than this
If this adventure done what is defect?
What found and found people
know this
One who has eaten
has it’s hadanu(moderateness)
Some how korpu(………………..) which has come by giving shoulder
Without bending to
pros and cons
Happy in joy partner in sorrow
Like paka(paste………….) of life juice
Embracing all
Embracing all sarasa and virasa
Live like sandal by
rubbing life!

To
me my own:
I have got my own wife

No fear of other husbands(mindas)
For expense there is ten rupee with me

needed
Nothing with me to give hand loan
Not asked loan from anybody
No my ownership on anybody
I am not slave of any
Moderately (hada?)broad
knife is there in hand
Not bowd to anybody
for ever
By happiness I am independent
Have not sorrowd to anbody
No body will take care of me
I have no interest(lakshya,concentration) in anybody

At depth of pain of my existence
Who is that awakened alone?

3)we are clouds:
Sky seing it’s
endless blue
Is seing dreams;
Clouds we are it’s
excessive mads
We have no house
In crown of eternity
stars are shining
Firm written form
Our’s ia like wrten by lead pencil
Can be wiped off next moment
Coming on air stage
beats maddale(drum)
Role throwing laugh lightning
Apart from that our laugh rain pours truth
Thunder is not boy’s play
Now also for fruit along with kaala purusha
We are not claiming
right
The breath which filled jiva(life) will blow off to distance
Before giving a name

9) to death:
Why like this wishpering to ear
Death ,o my death!
As evening comes
drying up
Cow and calves are returning to cattle house(kottige)
Keeping false steps with me
Speaking some unknown language
Jompisuva(drowsying?……) sound,cool pearls(kisses?)
Giving sleeping medicine in me like this
By request of love
method of getting loved
O death! Life without you?
What no function to
our marriage?
Won’t you wear beautiful
flower garland you
For decoration to knot of
brown hairs?
Nobody to lift flag
and moov in front of you?
Will not full night burn in light of red lamp?
Death ,o my death!
Come,your cone sound’s
onobstructed non adjunct(nirupaadhi)
In night spreading
night
Take ,make to wear to
me red gousanige(gown?...........)
Hold hand get,what a beauty!
In all dooes let your
diver(saarathi) be ready
Let horses be
neighing in anxiety
Moving away upper screen
(cover?) see me in full pride
Death ,! O my death!

Have made stars towonder.

Later only light’s fruit-sun rises

12)what is to
be happened all should happen
Till that swings mind’s balance pan(plate)
It has nosmall coin(asset?),only equak
stick(samadandige) balance
Suitable price should be given,market rate also
Adding subtracting ,multiplying dividing seing
Balancing ,calculating,some digit
Answering to question,remaimder is zero
The adisesha carried earth is it merely red soil?
Concealing wonder
has made yo search life
Ong journey
path,in hills and rocks

Twists and strengthens
relation of life and life

12)swan- milk:
Thinking that all whites are milk
Stomach is upset,getting dirt if touched
Thinking as white bird fell in mouth of baka
Got happy,all eight planets came gathered
Forgot yielding thick milk
Our prideful bufellos? Only two horns to them!
Palm thick cream curd,clear ghee
Ayya our father!come smell forearm
Mistake is not of cows,water mixed milk
To see is machaine,man’s is basement to measure
To measure feel
puritywhich manthra(chant) –challenge?
In manasa lake swan-milk justice
Milk which haseaten heppu(curd) becoming ghee is system
Be avoided
labour of churning broken(spoiled) milk

Our people die for
sleep
In old well of
dusky forgetfulness
Building nest

Opening eye to today’s light
Dhavala(white) hills
are lifting holding flag
Forgetting
all india has risen above
Have waited for liberation valient’s army
Enlighing blood have lifted paws
for died you bend head and go
crores and crores of
hands are tied fist
who has boldness(chest) to cross over?
Our mother-earth hill ghat river
It’s name only
to our breath
Under bulldozer
of samatha vaada
Have vanished
desire buds hundreds
Swinging in air water light
Those who lift head and stand are humans
Let plough moov,let machaines shout
Let that pass

In nation man has
become universal
Peace and humanitarianism are ourside

Lamp
wearer(deepadhari) by poet channaveera kanavi:
One…two…three…
Each one
flower light
Child keeping
first of all little steps counted
Creater!
Is
keeping little steps learning walking one
Good moment(shubha muhurtha)
As though
lifting earth system(globe) above
Rises
up suddenly;
Swinging
walking running on strings
Various exercise;
He also
knows all it’s gattu(style?)
Come and see
once; pride and style(gardigammatthu)
what ever
step kept is posture
what
ever walked is path
if missed eye he is universal traveler!
What ever he
holds is stubbornness
What ever
he talks is veda
All
arguments will tear bottom and run
If rises ,-
Thotthalanduliva(…………………..)
sacrifice horse!
If falls- he
has no it’s knowledge(sense)
Rising
falling rushing walking joy
Travel of
adventure-
Now only is
running training for some next struggle(fight)
Under his
presidentship should go
This house
each work
If missed-
Without
seing front and back will blow
War
pipe(kahale)!
We have no
boldness of standing speaking in front of him;
Since morning to evening continuously
burning sun!
If plays
,will go on playing : behaves as per his own will(manasukharaya)
(Namo
vighneshwaraya)
Stone or
thorn –he does not care anything
Diamond
bodied|
Recently has
learnt
New Plan of
crying without tears in eye
Next
moment-good moment –what flashes to him
What gets
down from moonland
Blosoms this
much broad smile of round jasmine
As though
emited all beauty of this life
Somewhere
rises hands to ten directions
Calls waving
unseen
;
In front of His black eyedancing peacock
Lifts some
figure and shows
Searches Removes moon behind sky
In one
vision searches(jaladu) stars
If sees
flower joys smells this rasika(interested)
To stytalk (banuli,akashavani)teaches new song
Holding sun
ray stick wants to rise up
In soil
selects gold particles
Counts feather of birds flying above
hits and talks with silent airs
during day
continuous worker,at night pide piper
in sleep
mover in yaksha world
shining
monthly light to his tender eye
in path of
day lampwearer to us
