Don’t call me by names
Or by any means
In far deserts where I live
Beyond those continents I see
The mirage of my nascent dreams.

Don’t wake me up
Let me sleep
Just for another night; where
Dreams dance unsynchronized
And winds bear joyous whims.

Yes the cembalo breathes distinct
But I still need your swing
To feel subtle resonances
And in perpetual happiness do I see
The crystal shines of icy mountains.

PS to everyone: I have changed the last two lines of the second para which read "Dreams that dance unsynchronized // even those winds bear joyous whims// to what they are at the moment .. somehow they seemed structurally incorrect earlier ... not sure whether they read correctly now ... anyways ...

Moreover have corrected a typographical error (I am now infamous for this ... shld start reading everything after I write them) in the first line of the last para ... breathe now reads with a s

--- had published in a rush (though no excuses)

Thanks
