Question

full appreciation of autumn poem by Kalidas and translated by professor A W Ryder​

Answer 1

Pitiless heat from heaven pours

By day, but nights are cool;

Continual bathing gently lowers

The water in the pool;

The evenings bring a charming peace:

For summer-time is here

When love that never knows surcease,

Is less imperious, dear.

Yet love can never fall asleep;

For he is waked to-day

By songs that all their sweetness keep

And lutes that softly play,

By fans with sandal-water wet

That bring us drowsy rest,

By strings of pearls that gently fret

Full many a lovely breast.
