Original Maithili Poem by Smt.Shefalika Varma,Translated into English by Translated by ……….

Anulina mallik

Shefalika Verma has written two outstanding books in Maithili; one a book of poems titled “BHAVANJALI”, and the other, a book of short stories titled “YAYAVARI”. Her Maithili Books have been translated into many languages including Hindi, English, Oriya, Gujarati, Dogri and others. She is frequently invited to the India Poetry Recital Festivals as her fans and friends are important people. I do not have to give more introduction of her as her achievements speak for themselves.

GOPAL KRISHNA

Dr. Shefalika Verma

Joy that lies in beauty, fragence

And hymn

Tranquility that lies between

Laughter and tears

Brightness and darkness

Dawn and Dusk

Almighty ?

…….its all your charisma

constantly I am engulfed

every moment I am inspired.

Desperate to unshackle

Myself

Attain sublimation

Lifelong wrapped grief of all

Treasured their faith and trust

No one could fathom my agony

Ceaselessly

This desire kept me

Burning

Scorching

Oh god ?

Liberate me

Unfetter me from desire

And aspirations..
