Venus in the sky of a moonless night,
a swan in a shimmering lake of dawn,
single on the occult path strewn with specks of light,
the stillness of the mist in a lake without a ripple,
she comes with the dawn, and melts
with the coming of the sun.
For more than a quarter of a year
the Venus shines in the east
only to disappear for long,
and comes back with opulence
once again in the west.
She resonates with lovers.
Her reverberations fall on earth
and brighten her occult path.
As like an angel cursed
she stays for a borrowed interval of time
tossing her mystical rays on the evening sky
in waves of orange, blue and mauve
in a fusion of light and the misty grey.
A translucent cloud comes and spreads
a curtain around to veil
the magnificence of Venus
changing her robes in the sky.
Before her, the last ray of light pales,
and Venus dissolves
in the arms of the darkness waiting at the end of the sky.
When the evening arrives, I pray,
: Let the light of Venus stay.
There are innumerable pages yet to be written;
they are fair and blank.
Venus shine; be not dim.
Fear not, faint not, hold up
the lamp which we can dimly see.
Show us beauty, show us sense.
Venus, shine and spread your rays.
