ಭೂಮಿಗೆ ಬಂದ ಕಾಮನಬಿಲ್ಲು

ಮುಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ನಗುವ ಬಿಲ್ಲೆ
ನಿನ್ನ ಅಂದಕೆ ಸಾಟಿಯು ಎಲ್ಲೆ?
ನೀನಿದ್ದರೆ ಬಾನಲ್ಲಿ ಚೆಲುವು
ಸಂತಸಗೊಂಡಿದೆ ಮನವು

ಮುಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ನಗುವ ಬಿಲ್ಲೆ,
ಹೇಳು, ನೀನೇಕೆ ಈ ಭುವಿಗೆ ಬಂದೆ?
ಈ ಝರಿಯ ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಮಿಂದೆ?

ಮಳೆ ಹನಿಯೊಳಗಿರದ ಸೊಬಗು
ಈ ಝರಿಯ ಹನಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಉಂಟೆ?
ಹೂವಂತೆ ಹನಿಹಿಡಿದು ನಿನಗೂ
ಮೆರೆಯುವ ಆಸೆಯು ಬಂತೆ?

ಮುಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ನಗುವ ಬಿಲ್ಲೆ
ಹೇಳು, ನೀನೇಕೆ ಈ ಭುವಿಗೆ ಬಂದೆ?
ಈ ಝರಿಯ ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಮಿಂದೆ?

ಮೋಡದ ಪಲ್ಲಕ್ಕಿಗಿಂತ
ನೀರಿನ ಆಸನ ಸೊಗಸೆ?
ಜಲಪತದ ಅಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ
ಅಲೆಯಾಗಿ ಓಲಾಡೊ ಕನಸೆ?

ಮುಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ನಗುವ ಬಿಲ್ಲೆ
ಹೇಳು, ನೀನೇಕೆ ಈ ಭುವಿಗೆ ಬಂದೆ?
ಈ ಝರಿಯ ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಮಿಂದೆ?

ಈ ಸುಂದರ ನೋಟವ ನೋಡಿ
ಹಾರೊ ಹಕ್ಕಿಯು ನಾನಾದೆ
ನಾ ಹಾಡೊ ಹಾಡನು ಹಾಡಿ
ನಲಿದಾಡೊ ಬಯಕೆಯು ನಿಂದೆ?

ಮುಗಿಲಲ್ಲಿ ನಗುವ ಬಿಲ್ಲೆ
ಹೇಳು, ನೀನೇಕೆ ಈ ಭುವಿಗೆ ಬಂದೆ?
ಈ ಝರಿಯ ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಮಿಂದೆ?

English Summary:
Have you ever seen a rainbow on water? If so how did you feel?
I had this rare oppurtunity of seeing a beautiful rainbow lurking on the waters of the astounding chelvara falls when i had been to coorg recently. Seeing the circle of rainbow right under the waterfall sent my imagination gallopping in full speed.
The result of that is this poem :)

O! beautiful smiling rainbow, there is no match for your beauty. Your presence beautifies the sky and makes everyone happy. Tell me, O! beautiful smiling rainbow, why did you choose to come down to earth? What is it that made you to mingle with the waters of this waterfall?


Are the droplets to this waterfall prettier than the lovely raindrops in the clouds above? Or are you jealous of the flowers that shimmer in the morning sun by holding these rain drops? Do you wish to catch the droplets of this waterfall and shimer like a flower? Tell me, O! beautiful smiling rainbow, why did you choose to come down to earth? What is it that made you to mingle with the waters of this waterfall?

You sit on the beautiful Palanquin made of clouds in the sky above. Did you find the seat of water more delighful? Or do you want to dance like a wave under the falling waterfall?
Tell me, O! beautiful smiling rainbow, why did you choose to come down to earth? What is it that made you to mingle with the waters of this waterfall?


Looking at this beautiful view, i am flying like a bird. Do you want to sing the song that i am singing along with me? Do you wish to rejoice the same way like me? Tell me, O! beautiful smiling rainbow, why did you choose to come down to earth? What is it that made you to mingle with the waters of this waterfall?
