Night Poem by C. P. Sharma
Night
O Goddess of Night,
Made up in perfect beauty
Roaming on diverse planes
Casting your cosmic planetary looks
In graceful gait you come.
O immortal Goddess,
You first fill the sky
Then, the low and high grounds
Through the shining stars in the sky
You illuminate the darkness.
You set forth the stage
Of arrival of your sister Dawn,
She comes dispelling thy darkness.
O Goddess Night,
Your arrival signals birds
To take shelter in nests on trees
And for us to take rest at home.
Bestow favors upon us:
In thy sheltering shield
All villagers safely sleep
All that walk and fly take rest
Even the falcons restrain to prey
O Goddess,
Keep the wolves away from us
Also take away the thieves
Guard us against all evils
The darkness is denser in hue
O Dawn, write it off as debt
O daughter of the sky,
Accept our offering of hymns
We brought to you like kine,
And with new vitality energize us
So as in new victories we ever shine.
Rig Veda (X/127)

The best tribute to the Goddess of Night and well composed one.
