Okram Shakuntala
I have walked much
I have
walked much
I have been
exhausted
Still the
spark of hope
I don't know
Whether it
is red or blue
Or like the
colour of green grass
In the mid
rainy season
But the hope
Chains the
spring
Inviting
multitude of birds
Blooming
thousands of flowers
For the
arrival
Yes for the
arrival
If a
beautiful Queen
And to bring
an end
To the long
walk
Both foot
and heart
Feeling a
little
With what
affection
That words
can not explain
Still I
promise
To walk and
walk
Until I
reach her
And offer
her a red rose
