Black Marigolds (Chaurapanchasika) · 1919

40

by Bilhana 11th century

Translated by E. Powys Mathers (Black Marigolds, 1919)


Even now
I mind when the red crowds were passed and it was raining
How glad those two that shared the rain with me;
For they talked happily with rich young voices
And at the storm's increase, closer and with content,
Each to the body of the other held
As there were no more severance for ever.
