Nalan 2.02 Lovers’ Quarrel And Reunion

Like garden surrounded by fields “My dear, how pretty you’re! The beautiful garden here Is like the one surrounded By fields, where I stayed.” Does it compare? Dhamayanthi with hesitation Asked, “Oh King, is it certain That this beautiful garden Is like the one you stayed in? ” She stood with her red eyes' corner Her red lips quivered. In her face, sweat flowed. Her eyes’ corners were red She was love-sick and stood. Her eye brows danced Her eye brows danced. They, in turn, signalled The love-friction she had. This, Nalan observed. He touched her feet Her mood to soften, And cool her down, He touched her feet, That had its effect. Her petty anger vanished, When, with love, he touched, As it always happened Between wife and husband. She sowed lust-plant Away her anger went. She sowed lust-plant O’er Nalan’s chest And quenched her thirst.
