Walking on the edge of a river-13

English Translation – Swathi Sreepada

Telugu original written by – Dr.C.Bhavani Devi

13.Unknown

Not only the people here
Even trees and flowers are unknown
Water and Fire, wind and sky with soil
We feel, are the same everywhere
But
Here in water cold fire kindles
Even sunlight also sighs in cold

The humanistic ideas of Mahatma
As the symbols of defeat of socialism
Here even wind also still teaches lessons
Soil with usual silence
Effects the entire sky
The feats of leaves here are strange
The greetings of flowers never turn old
As long as I stayed here
Away, far away from my soil, water, fire, wind and the sky
I am an unknown to myself
