Sri Sri - Kala Ravi
This is the translation of Sri Sri's poem 'Kala Ravi'. I tried my best to translate it to English, but it's best read and heard in Telugu. There could be better translation for some words and suggestions are welcome. The word 'pothe poni', which is often repeated in this poem is hard to translate. The literal meaning would be 'let it go if it has to go and don't stop it.' It is surprising to see such a sentence is aptly said by two words in Telugu. Maybe that's the beauty of it. Kala Ravi (Oh Poet!) let them go let them go... if they have to go! wife, children, well-wishers - let them go! let them go... let them come let them come... come if they may problems, loss, anger, thirst, curses - let them come! abuses, friction, hardship - let them come! let it come, let it come... let it happen, let it happen sing, meditate, smile, dance! let it happen, let it happen oh poet, best poet!
