In this vast amphitheatre

In   this   vast  amphitheatre......

In this vast  amphitheatre, the world,

encompassing  all, equally pretending,

it does not get old, ageless,

Icon    of    gyrating  paths,

grappling   all    that comes its way,  

you   and I    and  all ,  roll on

each  in the rhythm of our

doings  and   deeds,

oh! Karma, unsparingly  impartial,

 you  are the  wicked  also  vinegar ,

I am the  helpless  speck

Staring  at  the  charcoal  embers,

I cannot  dowse it peremptorily,

Ye, cinders  burn  and burn ,

whetted   by the  gushing   winds,

endlessly  burning  as man’s passion,

angst   ridden , mistakenly  crossed,

crossing  each other, you  are  the  fire,

you  are  the    universal  ire,

Here,  I am  submerged by the

Gauntlet of    your   verdict

already  set  as  the  stars  sun and  moon,

Ye,  cinders     burn  and  burn  ,

Till  the  pebbled   shores

Exceed   their    boundless jurisdiction.
