The Music Of Nightingale

The Nightingale broke into a melodious song

Which went for all night long.

There was sweetness and beauty in the song

But that was a sad song. 

I sat by my window to hear her sing the stories

She gathered while flying with her wing. 

The song relates the tale of a girl with 

A broken heart. 

The misery which has torn her tender 

Heart apart. 

Her tears wetting the book of poem,

Papers scattered like dry leaves in her room. 

She cries as her once love was now someone

Else groom. 

The nightingale sings the song of a woman playing 

Piano sitting beside her husband. 

She sings a song of her lost love as with a hand 

Beside her, her husband stand. 

Her tone of misery for her loss plays with her tune,

 As her husband absentmindedly counts his fortune.  

The nightingale sings of the youth who again 

Lost the battle of life.

From door to door he travelled for job but 

Without any hope of light. 

He sits alone with his files and documents and

Eats stale bread.

Loneliness and misery engulfing him as he 

Nimble his bread. 

The nightingale sings about the old mother

Whose son is at war? 

Praying for the health of the son who is 

Fighting for the country very far. 

It also relates to the mother's sitting 

At an old age, home looking at stars.

Thinking about the sons who with their

Wives eat at five stars. 

The nightingale sings a song of the children

Of orphanage looking at the sky.

Try very hard to locate their parents 

In the sky. 

As the dawn approaches she concludes her

Song with hope. 

With bright light, she fills every heart with hope

And concludes her song. 

I close my window with the hope to again

Hear her song.
