வட்ட நிலா / Round Moon

வட்ட நிலா / Round Moon
Picture by Jeevan
நீலவானில் வட்ட நிலா
இரவு வேளை கண் விழிக்கும்.
இமை எல்லாம் கருவிழியாய்
கவர்ந்திழுக்கும், வெள்ளை நிலா.

எட்டாத தொலைவில்
ஒரு வெள்ளை பனியாரம்.
மறைந்தும் மறையாமல்
என்றும் உருகாத வனில்லா (பனிப்பாகு).

ரசிக்காத கண்கள் இல்லை
வர்ணிக்காத கவிஞன் இல்லை
வட்ட வடிவில் பெண் நிலா
வசியம் செய்யும் வெண்ணிலா

Round moon on blue sky
wakes up during the night.
Everything as eyelids as iris
attractive white moon.

At far beyond
a while dish.
Hidden but never hideaway
ever melted vanilla (ice cream).

There’s no eyes fail to admire
 there’s no poet fail to describe
A female moon in round shape
the mesmerism.

A moon is an object that looks beautiful not because it has it's own light, but because it can reflect sunlight. Does that say anything? :)
