MEMORIES ...

A Poem by Roy
"

Inspired by a song called "Halud Pakhi" by Cactus, a pop/light rock band from Calcutta, India. If you know the tune, you can hum along ... it's set in the original music itself..

"

Lovebirds on the branch

Of the same old tree of mirth,

Sang ballads to each other

In a morn of yonder years

 

In a brutal storm they lost the race,

And the smile was wiped from the child's face ...

 

Will the days return, the joy that's gone?

Those wonder years, oh oh!

Will the days return, the joy that's gone?

Those wonder years, once more!

 

 

The boatswain old and chirpy,

The waters clear and blue,

On the Unicorn of Eden

My heart rode straight to you ...

 

Love is blind, She lost Her way,

My princess parted on an eve in May ...

 

Will the days return, the dream that's gone?

Those wonder years, oh oh!

Will the days return, the dream that's gone?

Those wonder years, once more!

 

 

Hunting for the treasures

That the palace ruins did hold,

The horizon did beckon

The child in Her fold ...

 

Till the floods wiped Her straight away,

In vain I search for Her today ...

 

Will the days return, the joy that's gone?

Those wonder years, oh oh!

Will the days return, the joy that's gone?

Those wonder years, once more!

 

 

Will the days return, the days of yon??

Those wonder years, once more!
