Oh, Lady Moon !

Chitra Poornima 

To-day is the full moon day in the current Tamil month of Chitrai.
This day is also known Buddha Poornima Day.
Indeed very auspicious day.
To-days Moon is nearer to earth, bigger and brighter
and is termed as " Super Moon "



Oh, Lady Moon !
Thilak adorning your crescent forehead
jasmine decorating your cloudy hair
your sparkling smile, the sharp arrow
piercing my heart
standing afar and burning me
reciting in my ears the love songs
daily and life-long !

Oh, silvery full moon!
happy to swim slowly
in the ocean of the blue sky
is it not the hesitancy redundant,
when steaming love is in abundant ?
other day in the same moon-lit night
she was close with me, right ?
hiding behind the dark clouds,
your overwhelming shy in excess,
oh moon, you were the witness !

swaying sweet fruits
carefully plucking,
with beautiful flowers
wearing colorful garlands,
reciting the love song
together we will walk along
on the stage of romance
making our happy life to commence.
nothing there now to shy or sulk
you, the angel in the softy silk.
