O death!
To have snatched,
The most precious of our gems;
Leaving us shocked and shattered.
You must have gained in our loss,
And will be feeling richer,
But that's only half-truth,
You can pamper yourself with.
For what you have taken,
Was only her mortal frame,
And not an iota of the aura,
Surrounding that blessed name.
The legacy she leaves behind,
Is as alive and mesmerizing,
As her God-gifted golden voice,
Divine in its very essence.
Now mingled with the elements,
As part of the universal spirit,
It will continue resonating forever,
In timeless melodies of Nature.
A tribute to the legendary singer Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar.
