DARJEELING
***
(Where I had been dazed by the beauty of nature at the Himalayas)

Poem By: Abdelmoneim Khalifa Khogaly
(Translated from Arabic By: Dr. Ahmed Ibrahim Yagi
******
Spring of comeliness indeed your beauty had moved me that of wording I was listless......
By you is the pride of life, O pageantry by you year after year is resplendence of existence.....
O shrine of beauty to you we came chaste in consecration dress....

O mountains as if in pride imposingly lofty like Buddha ...like those steadfast in stance...
Verdant, blooming and flourishing .. delight to the eye wherever falls its glance......

Ye this waterfall is streaming silver. Whence did you come, since when and till when your existence....
Like youth of life in rushing steps ..being greeted O youth in bliss .....
Darjeeling .. I fell in love, so can I love then love infuse??.... .

O pearl glittering at morning onset, and stay the evening in glitter, and in continuance ......
You .. O paradise, thirsty as we are, we have imbibed and still in sickness..........

And we suckled the zest of beauty for inebriety..do I seem for weaning to have yet tolerance??...
O beauty for its like evolved afflatus, art and poetry ..and singing fanned over distance...
