Dear Crane
Gajanan Mishra
No, you are
Not lonely.
There I am with you,
Come on dear,
O Siberian, you are alive,
So also I.
Come on, we both
Fly together and
Enjoy this world.
Here see,
The airspace is opened
For both.
We are free and
Move at any time
Anywhere on this earth,
And it is our birthright.
Let us hope
For the best
And together
Let us observe
Each event.
Come on to share
All life's burdens.
O dear, I know
You are extraordinary,
And for me
You are not migratory,
You are coming through
Migratory though,
You belong to this earth
As I.
I know you,
O majestic Crane,
You have snow-white plumage,
And a red head,
And you are most celebrated.
I salute Istad Mansur
Who painted you
In the court of Mughals.
You are not threatened,
You are my dearest.
I am calling you,
I am waiting you
Near this freshwater lake
Here at Chilika.
O marathoners, please
Appear again and again,
We all are the products of
So wonderful and beautiful nature.
