Ocean-A song of mystery
Deep into the silence of night, I feel to be by your side,
Fancy of watching creatures you hold on to,
Imagine your beauty, while rain drops drench you,
Again and again your blue water keeps me beckoning,
And I cherish your beauty my dear sea.
If ever reborn, wish it may be by your coast,
Not in a mansion, but in the family of a boatman,
Happily counting your waves from dawn to dusk.
Standing there, I see kingfishers soar over to find their catch,
Deep inside water, sensed as if waves pushing me up,
Then I let my wishes free to fly to be in a barren land's lap.
Although I shall be happy going there all alone,
But promise not to let you down if you like to come along.
I am crazy to meet you as if not met for ages,
Fulfillment is felt, when breeze caressed my face.
I visualise your lips among glittering dancing waves,
Color changing from gold to silver as moon shins in the sky.
Loves blossom in sea beach and also many break,
I feel sceptical about our love, since you are mercurial as waves.
I would like to feel the charm of dancing waves,
And watch dolphins dance along with it,
As boat sails over blue water with floating golden leaves.
At times, feel quitting worldly pleasure and sail into the sea,
As our bonding is eternal and my heart beats for you,
Pleasure watching waves and foams encircling my boat,
But can't do so, as has to fulfill so many tasks.
Ocean is the epicenter of living world and saviour of mankind,
Since, lord Visnu resides abode, with mother Laxmi by his side,
It has unexplored miracles hidden under,
And if not respected, the world may vanish with catastrophic flooding in one go.
