I Am In Love by Rimli Bhattacharya

I am in love with the silver moon

Countless nights I have stayed awake

And have basked in delight of the silvercoin.

I am in love with the silver moon

The half, the quarters and the full

Which shines from the sky giving off the light.

I am in love with the silver moon

Which adornes the sky like a radiant pearl

The rays entering the doors of heaven.

From my desk adjacent to the window

I have watched my confidante

With whom I have shared my joys and sorrows.

I had stringed a necklace of love

For the brilliant spherule of white luster.

Tonight I will stay awake 

For I will walk miles together 

With the one I am in love.

Yes I am in love

I am in love with the silver moon.
