Through The Heart Of Kundil Town Poem by Prem Narayan Nath

Through the heart of Kundil town
the blue river of the night
all agog with ripples

Along the blue waves
the boat drifts
all agog

Scattered on the waves
are thousand moons
all excited

The cassia gold of woods
the blue sky
the moonlight wih jingling anklets

Red Adam
and reddish Eve
the silent stars here and there

At whose lap does the river leave
the nocturnal Kundil town
coiling by it

No onlookers at a distance
nobody has seen
the yellow flowers of grass

Adam is hungry
Eve is thirsty
the moon pours down nectar

Adam is red in hunger
Eve is reddish in thirst
the earth floats upward
the sky has thickened

The river of moonlight night
is all agog
there is land under the currents.
