Did you ever imagine…?
Did you ever imagine
That luminous smile you wear around lips,
Consummate charm and glow on face –
As if you have been in samadhi for Ages,
As if you are an angel-philosopher –
The lone, knowing the Universe
In its completeness?
Did you ever imagine
That the snow-clad Himalayas
Spell their charm on Earth
But you even charm the Himalayas
To their utter pride
Greenery, springs, falls, rivers –
All in nature sustain for you
To have you happy, hilarious, joyful and content?
Did you ever imagine
That even the prettiest fairies
Narrate your living tales
To their kids,
Even the gods in the sky
Have fixed their gaze on you?
Did you ever imagine
That such beautiful and beatific eyes
Have never been in existence before
Such peace-splashing looks
Could be worn by you only
The Earth reigns over the Cosmos
With a substance of her Evolution
And the Evolution presents you
As its revolution?
Did you ever imagine
That Evolution has prompted me
And my inner self has directed me
To discover the greatest creation of the Cosmos
And I discovered you –
The Evolution’s proudest achievement –
The Evolution brought its climax beauty
In your human form
And it concealed from all
But not from me,
And I revealed the mystery of Evolution?
