Vision Of The Beloved Poem by Sagnik Chakraborty

I fell asleep within my dream,
Cradled by the lonesome night,
Beyond the pale of time and distance
Shone your face, a vision bright!
I drank Love's hemlock in my dream,
And died upon your loving sighs,
(To be)reborn at the hour of daybreak
When night shut her thousand eyes.

In the fierceness of dawn's beauty
Yet again I see you, Love!
Bright and warm as the infant Sun,
And serene as the sky above!
The eastern lights bring to the world
The gift of life, with bliss to part,
In dawn is sketched my Beloved's smile,
In light is etched her loving heart.
