When the moon showed its face;
luminous stars were fading away
Clouds entwined together to sweep
off, got ready for a riot
The road was impassable thro' the rain; staying away from the drizzle
I creep-ed to the lawn of the
endanger streets; sat alone
A vendor in the street, she turned
her melancholy eyes on me,
I realized a baby girl tangled in her arm; passionately she tried to nourish
She soaked in the drizzling rain;
showed the sign of poverty
And covered the bare head of her
baby; assortment got wet
My torn-mind kept rattling, my
heart popped-out like a snake's head
It was getting dark; the moon tried to hide behind a cloud
I lingered the moon; to show
brightness to her; it cheat-ed me
Thou' I would try to offer a help;
her pride wouldn't allow it.
On that evening, she managed to
sell most of the things
Sighed like drowsy;
she initiated the move to her paradise
I glimpsed through the traces of her
footsteps; the rain stopped
Let my arrow flew to them, I uttered the verse; "It's
going to be a peaceful night"
