Bhagiratha’s Bounty and Other poems-11

English Translation: T.S. Chandra Mouli

Telugu Original : Kandukuri Sreeramulu 

11.Downpour of Delight           

In conclave of clouds
Sun went missing
in market selling cows calves untraceable.

Like crashing water tank
turned all the ground into a lake,
entire cotton beds when twisted
cascading sky tumbled as branded bull.

As eye lids close
inside the earth
when eyelids open
on the ground
glitters star of water.

Like eyes extending grace to face
water lends glory, glee to earth!
