వెండి వెన్నెల దివి తీరాన,
సాగే ప్రవాహ రాగాన,
మనసున ఆగని దాగని
మాటలనే నీతో తెలుపనా ...
ఇంటి ముంగిట ముగ్గు వేయగా,
ఆరు బయట పందిరిసడిన,
తొంగి చూసి పరవశించి,
నను నేను మరువగా...
మడి చీర వయ్యారంలో,
నడిచే శృంగార వీణ,
నీ తడి కురుల చిక్కుల్లో,
బంధీనై నే జీవించగా...
జాలువారే నీ వాలు జడ,
కొప్పున జాజిమల్లెల సువాసన,
సత్యభామనే తలపింతువులే,
ఆ కోపతాపాల నే సేదతీరగా...
పులకించెనే మది ఆ శృతిలో,
కవ్వేనే నీ మాటల సడిలో,
కనుల వెలుగులు, పెదవి విరుపులు,
మురిసె చెక్కిళ్లు, మెరిసే నా లోగిళ్ళు...
Would I ever get to thank you enough?
For opening up my heart
Giving it a voice
Letting me be me
Countless memories
And many more friends...
I grew up on your music
Intense and passionate
Collecting and filling up my mind
With the tunes and lyrics
I hum without realising...
The darkness never seemed to bother
With music that filled the silence
Taking my breath away
Yet ensuring I breathe easy...
My heart found resonance
And so did the life
It knew all it needed was
Memories that you filled my head...
Be whatever my mood
I could pick up a song
Groove to it
And peace came all long...
What more could the soul want
You gave me all I need
To be forever grateful...
I stare
Blank in the white
To realise the nothingness
That surrounds me now
Need to write afresh
And not stop
'Cuz
I would be lost in the current
Torn in bits and pieces..
I look for an exit
All seem far away
Farther than my heart could last
And the pain seems to never fade away..
To discover self was what I wanted
And I just fell in love
With the road and the nature
That I feel one with it
And oppressed without it..
Nomad is who I am
Mad maybe not
Drawn to the world of new
Forgetting the everyday past
Discovering new ways to look ahead..
Is it my own misery
That I create and run from?
The urge to reach the mountains
The fresh breath of air
The forgotten smiles in life
I yearn in earnest, and endless desire
Not to run away, but fly
With wings that defy..
