Celestial candles kindle ceremony,
and then renounce their golden flame to die.
Beguiling dawn, a monk descends the steps
to Ganges, as rays appear and ripple
the river's face and as oars divide air
into a spoonful of soundless voices.
A flawless bird delivers skies of doom;
its fluttering vanquishes silence and
it glides away leaving on the canvas,
the vermillion of its victory.
A temple gong awakens the idols
and rises she from her daylong slumber;
hurries Aurora in her saffron cape,
spilling its colour on the earth and sky.
