Connections

on drones a steady note 

filling up the silence

as  a lone voice croons words

in a language unknown to me

....let the magic flow

alluring words; that I roll softly on my tongue

savouring how they sound and feel

reveling in the bliss of ignorance 

of not knowing their meaning

the lone note still drones on

and the words are beyond my comprehension

but I am instantly drawn

....for your voice holds me there

refusing to let me go

transcending barriers, breaking walls

letting tears fall 

this is what it's all about

when a single note entrances

....and bewitches you forever

ude re umang

bina dor ke patang

ek doosre ke sang jud gaya

jiya se jiya

-A.R.Rahman
