O my dream

O my dream
O my dream

Don’t just be
A mere wish
Don’t just be
ephemeral mist
form the ground
beneath my heart
be my faith
My sweet heart

Ah.. that sheen
that shivering dew
on the tip of bud
for moments few
vivid it was
so short-lived, but

doubt? I did
not in love’s light
rather wind’s might
that causes fright
don’t play in my eyes
hide in my veins

O my dream

For a few days
happiness bloomed
at the gala fair
of town ’T was doomed
I traded all joy
To buy sweet pain
precious it was
bought few grains
Tried, in vain
To make ends meet
Lend me some more
Love’s pain sweet
O my dream
O my dream

Don’t just be
A mere wish
Don’t just be
ephemeral mist
form the ground
beneath my heart
Be my faith
My sweet heart

Translation of my poem- O Swapn Mere
