    fabulous....

    Dear Sridhar

    Reading your post I remembered few lines by a contempoaray poet who said

    " I will give you a new poem
    The poem will give you a new life
    That will give you a new journey"..

    How a love poem so beautifully composed on the moon gave a new life, a new journey to two souls which were meant to be united despite the designs of men...
    A wonderful love scene, so sublime and ecstatic..
    Thanks for posting it Sridhar...and about your translation, ah..words fail me now to express my joy at your felicity. A Translator can kill the original, or make it immortal....you are proving time and again that you are a fabulous translator....keep it up ..
    Thanks and regards
    ambika

    Thanks Ambika For Giving a Sense of Completion to this post!

    Dear Ambika,
    It was thrilling to see the comments of a poetess on the poem I posted. I am very very happy that you liked the poem and my translation.
    You have very beautifully summed up the effect of a poem. And as you know Ambika, when I was about to fall ill last week and the body pain was crushing me to my bones, there again a poem came as a relief. It was kind of you to have read and corrected my poem.
    This is the best forum to express my thanks for that.
    After making a couple of translations I feel that the power of the original poetry determines the quality of translation.
    Thanks Ambika once again for everything.
    regards,
    sridhar

    Most Gracious ILItes,
