Moonlight Sonata (ONV Kurup)

Author: K. JAYAKUMAR (Translation)

Clear moonlit night.
Life’s cages are fast asleep
On either side of the street.
On the frosty white walkway
Moonlight spreads! What a harmony!
Did white lilies bloom in that harmony?
Did angels awaken on those flowers?
The five senses are restless like
Bees lusting for honey and pollen dust.
Ears catch a musical note.
As you amble aimlessly like a sleepwalker
