POEMS OF SAROJINI NAIDU
AUTUMN SONG
LIKE a joy on the heart of a sorrow,
The sunset hangs on a cloud;
A golden storm of glittering sheaves,
Of fair and frail and fluttering leaves,
The wild wind blows in a cloud.
The sunset hangs on a cloud;
A golden storm of glittering sheaves,
Of fair and frail and fluttering leaves,
The wild wind blows in a cloud.
Hark to a voice that is calling
To my heart in the voice of the wind:
My heart is weary and sad and alone,
For its dreams like the fluttering leaves have gone,
And why should I stay behind?
To my heart in the voice of the wind:
My heart is weary and sad and alone,
For its dreams like the fluttering leaves have gone,
And why should I stay behind?
ECSTASY
COVER mine eyes, O my Love!
Mine eyes that are weary of bliss
As of light that is poignant and strong
O silence my lips with a kiss,
My lips that are weary of song!
Mine eyes that are weary of bliss
As of light that is poignant and strong
O silence my lips with a kiss,
My lips that are weary of song!
Shelter my soul, O my love!
My soul is bent low with the pain
And the burden of love, like the grace
Of a flower that is smitten with rain:
O shelter my soul from thy face!
My soul is bent low with the pain
And the burden of love, like the grace
Of a flower that is smitten with rain:
O shelter my soul from thy face!
WEAVERS, weaving at break of day,
Why do you weave a garment so
gay?...
Blue as the wing of a halcyon
wild,
We weave the robes of a new-born
child.
Weavers, weaving at fall of night,
Why do you weave a garment so
bright?...
Like the plumes of a peacock,
purple and green,
We weave the marriage-veils of a
queen.
Weavers, weaving solemn and still,
What do you weave in the moonlight
chill?...
White as a feather and white as a
cloud,
We weave a dead man's funeral
shroud
