I MUST SLEEP NOW JUST FOR A WHILE

I must sleep now just for a while, my Love,
Where I’ll find you in my candlelit dream

The streams of hope will play a sweet melody
In your heart
And a new beginning of an evergreen start
Will organize a wise fly in that open sky
And my ego will make its scheduled landing
On your utopian lips

Life keeps on maintaining a tough attitude towards those
Who’re afraid to accept the reality as it is,
Ignoring the identity crisis therefore
I’ve been concentrating on the folklore s
Of Indian Culture

And the very discovery I’m having in me, is
Hindu and India are one and same;
Let’s stop the blame game
Played on between you and me!
Let the destiny appear in our daily understandings

We’ll have a good morning
Right at that divine dawn,
The red revolution is ready
To show us the correct pathway
That is absolutely right
By being beyond any Islamization
Or any orthodox school

Our love has brought a full moon tonight;
You, me and our togetherness
Altogether can make an orchestra,
Can ban the pan ethnocentrism
From this versatile universe,
Can stand as an unbeatable team

I must sleep now just for a while, my Love,
Where I’ll find you in my candlelit dream…
