Face of the Moon
Face of the moon on water reflects
the light of the sun.
Face of the sun on water reflects
fire and heat.
Rain clouds quench the thirsty petals.
Crickets dance, birds chirp, river flows.
Man, woman and child asleep with a burden.
Morning hymn beckons the traveller from the east.
Winter's dead, the gods are awakening.
April sings the music of spring.
Orpheus plays the music of love.
Lil Krishna slays the old serpent head.
Sitar strings adorn the new fangled way.
Rejoice, rejoice, sweet breezes blow iron hands away.
