Pearl-like Jasmine

Mallikai-Jasmine

By Kuzhanthai Kavignar Azha Valliyappa

[Florist near Near Mayurapathi Amman Temple, Wellawatte, Sri Lanka]

Pearl-like Jasmine
Shows all beauty
Always dancing daily
on the heads of lass

Wherever hidden
find it easily
spreading fresh scent
saying am here

Pleasing the eyes
Its scent mixes with wind
while on women’s head
making them proud

Wear it on our heads
we aren’t fortunate
wonder the men in angst
with the jasmine flower

One Language all over the World….By Poet Vaali

One Language all over the World….
Language spoken by hearts in love..
Language spoken without sound..
Language of sphere-less divine….

A bird in varied colors
One lyric many ragas
Nights are alike but seasons differ
Delight is same for the many souls

When separated by sea and sky
Love unites faster than the speed of wind
Souls may be separated into two
But love is just one-named divinity

One sky-one and only moonlight
Years those gone by are in millions
Imparted by love, reciting poetry and delving in arts
The united were in millions

Mass in the millions spoke it yet
Love sprouts swiftly
Be globe trotting, still
Love Google’s to unite

One language all over the world..
Language spoken by hearts in love..
Language spoken without sound..
Language of sphereless divine….- By Kavignar Vaali

[Purple Lily in Waikkal, North-West Province, Sri Lanka]
