ROMANCE: "BANGLE SYMPHONY" BY SOMDATTA MITRA

I can hear the glass bangles making sound ,

Adorning the hands of a new bride .

Her attire , a red Benarasi saree dazzles with golden thread ,

A beauty to behold our tradition and culture 's proud display.

Divinity within, charming glow seizes the heart ,

Rituals to celebrate love's pure art.

Her blushing eyes sparkle like morning dew ,

Sensuousness flows in every gentle hue. 

Each time the bangles tjing tjing, her love shines through,

Filling her husband 's heart with dreams , forever true.

With eye contact she cherishes every wink ,

And he gets lost in her loving blink.

 An enrapture fleeting like the firefly's light ,

Guiding them through love's tender night.

In slight delay every urge to capture her smile ,

Frame it in his heart 's shutter and then treasure. 

In the cosmos of her delirium ,

He finds his forever universe.

Under moonlit shadows , she urges with sweet gestures,

Eager to unite , her heart starts to flow. 

In his loving arms , she finds a heaven of real happiness,

Tonight their love will bloom , in all its dew.

Vermilion's fiery dot, her married charm ignites,

Mangalsutra's gentle threads, a love story in eternal rights.
