Sizzling sound in the water <br />My sleep broken <br />A billion years of sleep <br /> <br />Over whose head <br />The hole of the sky, the iron cloud, and <br />Under that, circling, the silence of sinking earth <br /> <br />[Translated from 'Jwolte jwolte paakhi poDchhe' ( Bengali) by Poet himself]<br /><br />Joy Goswami<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-burning-bird-drops/
