“My Golden Earth (The Sonnet) O my golden earth, I am but your stupid lover. The flute of your dazzling fragrance, Makes my agonies disappear. Whenever your sky is cloudy, My heart drowns in drought. Whenever your oceans quiver, With tears my eyes get fraught. Whenever you giggle in prosperity, It pours honey into my ears. Whenever you shine with festivals, Light and love erase my historic fears. You are my home o my golden earth. All your children are my sisters and brothers.” — Abhijit Naskar
My Golden Earth (The Sonnet)
O my golden earth,
I am but your stupid lover.
The flute of your dazzling fragrance,
Makes my agonies disappear.
Whenever your sky is cloudy,
My heart drowns in drought.
Whenever your oceans quiver,
With tears my eyes get fraught.
Whenever you giggle in prosperity,
It pours honey into my ears.
Whenever you shine with festivals,
Light and love erase my historic fears.
You are my home o my golden earth.
All your children are my sisters and brothers.
