When I was ten, went to a village where groundnut seeds were freshly sown br Where everything about the outside world is completely unknown br br The house I had to live in was isolated from the village br In the middle of nowhere, I had to live like a secluded sage br br Lived in the house was an old man of eighty years of age br Resembled a weak lion in the most peaceful cage br br Behind that home was a land almost filled with yellow grass br Can we find another such a place with lesser gathering of mass br br It was too beautiful to look in twilight br Hard to fully remind of other places than that sight br br But the night was full of darkness with nothing to find br You can even get a doubt whether you are blind br br Closing my eyes on that darkness, I try to sleep br But I wake up suddenly when on me cats try to leap br br Those were the cats my master was growing br For me it looked very annoying br br They always wanted to sleep beside me br So fully covering myself with bed sheets, i felt homey br br Waking up in the early morning, I see moon still in the sky br And the gentle sound of cowbells made me see them pass by br br A bit and slice of every emotion neatly served br Which would make all experiences of life fervid br br Just a small boy was I then, so it's hard to recall much br Wasn't it worthy to live in a place as suchbr br AnilKumar Sharmabr br
