Behold the season,
Such blossoming grace,
The whole world,
In restless embrace.
Why then, in this hour,
Should we not be lost, in a daze?

Dripping, spilling,
The moonlight's sheen,
Subtle, gentle,
A blissful unseen.
Why then, in this space,
Should we not fade, and be gone?

In every breath a song, shehnai's call,
Shadows of stars upon the heart do fall,
The moon gazes,
From heavens high,
Teasing us,
Knowing why.
Why then, in this moment,

In every wave, of the ocean's sway,
Desires surge, come what may,
The heart's song,
A vibrant sound,
Ripples dancing,
All around,
Why then, in this tide,
