When the night looks brighter, looks at you longingly
Thank the stars and the moment not embellished with lies
Clarity looks into the eyes with love and draws a beautiful drawing of a soul
Only time when an eternal dimension has a face sits beside you like a friend
Exhausted days went off to sleep early
Here’s a chance to be friendly with the soul amidst clear sparkles of stars
Moon is the unbiased witness narrating the precious moments to cosmic ears
Chimeras run away; fear of being exposed by the probing night
Lies are dead and the ears have a chance to listen to the soul carefully
Vulgar seekings, diabolic overtures stand there banished
A poet does not have to rummage through heaps of unnecessary subjects
Wretched talks cannot dilute the essence of a heartfelt dialogue
Today, it’s a gathering of cosmic forces to protect this beautiful moment
Deceitful faces look down and ashamed of their deeds; ostracised, they look forlorn
There’s this beautiful language to compose a new verse
Wind dances around in euphoria listening to the rhythm of emotions
Such is the inspiration of existence that the Moon wishes to highlight
Soulful times have just begun with dreams of transforming the essence of life
Crystal clear night places hope and glory deep in the soul
Only to retire after an honest rendezvous to dwell in this body
With new dreams, a journey has just started and many paths to walk on
