Poem -

Under the Banyan tree

Under the Banyan tree

These ghosts 

On winter night 

Walking down the street 

In time with the moon 

And the wind and the cold 

In the atmosphere of light

Looking towards India 

The beggars, the temples 

The spices in the market 

That brought forth the senses 

Into the life of a beggar 

Looking for a meal 

Hungry for good fortune 

O India, feed me 

Bring to me god's wealth 

The taste of your markets 

For my belly is empty 

And my heart is lonely 

As my soul is reincarnated 

From the son of poverty 

And the daughter of destitution, 

Lord India, 

 Father of Taj Mahal

Mother of Qutb Minar

I am lying on your doorsteps 

Begging for salvation

Offerings and love 

Under the Banyan tree

With God Krishna 

And God Shiva by my side
