Village boy Impressions

  When the day unfolds and the sun begins to smile, When light spurts in the east and the wind begins to stir, And all the living awake in wonder and delight, I rise with eager hope to contemplate your love! When the warming sun stretches forth over the fields,  When leaf and blossom with fragrance fill the air,  And the birds their morning hymn of praise intone, I hasten from my lair that I may behold your beauty. When golden noon comes and all beasts shelter seek,  When the wind is at rest and sweat is on the brow,  And beneath the blazing roofs the kids must retire, I sit and muse upon your beauty and my heart is glad! When the sun is in the west and wind returns from the north;  When the farmer in field with longing gazes at his road home, And the labourer observes his weary day draws to fruition, I hasten the sun to his grave with longing for thee. When light and beauty is in the west, and leaf and blossom fall, When eventide hastens, and darkness must waning

Long, long ago, before ever I met you  I knew and loved your intoxicating brew  I dreamed you up, my goal, my aspiration  My pain, my ideal, true to my station And then you came as in a vision Not merely a slavish incarnation  But as faithful as the dream I’d dreamed  In fact, more than ever you had seemed  Filled with such great strength of spirit  And as remote from fake or falsity  As from the sham of tinsel constellations  The real star that lights up the nations !  So pure in heart and so sincere are you  I confess, that as I stand before you,  I am conquered by your very human  Impetuous, gentle loveliness and acumen Oh let the dreamer not condemn me  I fell, for both of us, the joy will be  To know that life's compassion is Much greater than our imaginings.
