TO AN ETHEREAL ANGEL UPON THE EMERALD WAVES.....
TO AN ETHEREAL ANGEL UPON THE EMERALD WAVES.....
Oh! Upon the emerald waves of serenity,
Dost thou tread, like an ethereal Angel, in pursuit of an Ambrosian bliss;
Moving far away from the mundane mire and sordid morbidity,
To mingle with Immortality cherishing an unwavering wish!
Oh! The picturesque beauty of the yonder horizon,
Fills thy euphoric heart with peace, harmony and elation;
Thou dost seem adoring the Nature's inscrutable Creation,
And pay Her thy utmost obesciance with the sincerest submission!
But, thou hast, o my Love, become a brimming Stream of joy for my dreaming heart,
Thou hast, with thy infinitely blissful company, like a soft, soothing breeze, brought,
Me the smiles of blithe blossoms; the shines of the Full Moon, and the solace of Salvation,
Thus, dost thou say, o my Love! How canst thou be, like a nightmare, thrown into oblivion?

O MY LOVE! THIS IS WHAT THOU ART TO ME.
O MY LOVE! THIS IS WHAT THOU ART TO ME.
O my Love! Thou art the silver lining of hope among the darkest clouds of despair,
That doth succour me past praise like a pulley to surpass the humps with cautious care,
That doth promise me beyond an iota of doubt the sunny days of comfort and mirth,
That doth assure me like a good yield after the timely rains of bliss without any dearth!
O my Love! Thou art the healing balm among the sorest lesions of topsy-turvies and sorrows,
That doth assuage the pinch of the grief throes and predict a quick arrival of the merry morrows,
That doth prognosticate, "Your painful days are over, and heydays are the matter of time,
My gentle touch and soothing care will surely recuperate you to sing life's sweetest rhyme!"
O my Love! Thou art the prettiest Rose in my life surrounded with the thorns of adversity,
That doth mitigate my pangs of sad morbidity as Full Moon removes the blithe light's scarcity,
That doth remove my sombre solitude as the reviving showers bring to the earth glee,
That doth end my sulky days of goom as in the presence of the sweetest smiles the sourest tears flee!

O MY LOVE! LET'S SOAR FASTER.
O MY LOVE! LET'S SOAR FASTER.
O my Love! Let's soar to a State faster than light, and higher than the clouds,
Where, the din of the mundane worries and anxieties, the sweet serenity shrouds,
Where we can quench our thirsts drinking the delicious draughts of Elysian ecstasy,
Where we can mitigate our hearts' hunger forever guzzling the elixir of peace!
O my Love! Let's soar sooner to a realm to heal our wounds of worries with our panacea of Love,
To relieve ourselves of the ominous glares reclining and rejoicing on the chariot of Dove,
To solve smoothly, with our foolproof startegies and stratagems, life's inscrutable mystery,
To forget forever the sores of sorrows singing blissfully the ballads of our Love's victory;
Yes, O my Love, to get rid of tedious monotony, and humdrum hallucinogen,
And to befriend beatitude; embrace euphoria as the eternal denizens of Heaven!
