Analysis of Days die to Darkness



Alaknanda
Days die to darkness,darkness die to lights
Slowly and gently the rhythms of love
alight on your chaste,sweet,virgin eyes--
Days die to darkness
Darkness die to lights
ALAKNANDA
While I look into your eyes
I see the flashes of my births,deaths,faiths
flying through the sky
wearing a fake veil of treachery!
Unto this Treasury of Prem,Pain,and Pride
You tell me to forget you-----
you,me and the butterfly!
How can I ever forget those moments
that we shared in the rain and sunshine
Days die to darkness;Darkness die to lights
Up upon the rainbow sky a string of
seagulls glide
