Mahua flower-on Her Brown Lap
You in delight
In skin of soft yellowish white
...
A humming bird that guides my eyes
Before the bright of mid-day sun
To give a fresh touch the paper white
Through the fresco seeking for dapped light.

Mahua Flower-On Her Brown Lap
Mahua flower-on Her Brown Lap
You in delight
In skin of soft yellowish white
With a drop of nectar sweet
On the hot bed you rest
Listening to the call of jungle from tiny nest
Ready to enter into the bamboo basket
Making a joyful gain of the chirping dawn,
When the shadow of darkness is about to run.
What a joy under the sun
With wild aroma and flavour born!
