Famous Nivedita Roy Quotes

“In the yells of excitement I ride into the unknown fearlessly through the glen But i can't shake off the feeling that I am being gazed down In an open assessment A swiftness shifts the air And I hear a sharp cry As shadow of a vast hawk Sweeps across the valley My eyes rove the sky And pulling the reins i follow it in its flight As it circle and dove I outstretch my arm To have it take its place And with a single beat of its fierce wings It descended with grace Its talons grip my wrist And the hawk met my eyes Unblinking and ancient And my eyes travel To a rolled parchment That’s tied on its legs With a shimmering thread Recognising the unmistakable seal I unravel the message, Its a call from the guardians And I am invited, to attend my fate.”

“The tales of a sybil Speak of an ancient diary Shared between angels and the diabolical devil Each page of the diary is split vertically in three- The left column enlists the dreams, And the next two columns are empty. The fields are left blank To be entered with details, Such as the date and the time The middle one is filled by the angels when the dreams are born, and the right one is done by the devil for he takes delight when they are to die. But they say one day, And that it happened only once, when devil was scrawling Eagerly in the right column He stumbled on a particular cell- On the horns of dilemma He ratified the row and reread the dream, A shiver ran down his spine, his brutal hands trembled, Sweats formed on his temple and even the devil let out a sigh. It was a dream in which you were mine.”
