We present his awesome poem I heard that…. We extend our heartiest thanks to the learned author Captain Pravin Raghuvanshi Ji, who is very well conversant with Hindi, Sanskrit, English and Urdu languages for sharing this classic poem.  

☆ I heard that…  ☆

☆

I’ve heard people keep looking at

her with wide eyed-amazement

So let’s stay in her town for a

few days more and behold her…

*

I’ve heard the moon keeps seeing her

enviously through out the night

Stars too descend down from the

sky to  the earth to behold  her…

*

I’ve  heard  that she is extremely

fond  of listening to the poetry

So let’s also  show her the miracles     

of our excellent poetic skills…

*

I’ve heard that when she speaks,

flowers fall from her mouth

If this is the case then let’s talk

to her and see it for ourselves…

*

I’ve heard she’s very passionate

about the profound tragedies,

So let’s ruin ourselves totally

and be with her for some time…
