An outing with children and the flow of the water seemed not more than a foot deep.

A touching song





For the first time,here, I am attempting a translation.A meaningful Telugu song from "Jeevana Tarangaalu" which was released in 1973.The song was picturized when a poor mother was being taken to the last rites.Her husband already died and son was a thief and had gone out of the home.Amidst the song he joins and shoulders his mother's dead body without knowing it.  The song was a super hit with the touching meaning of the life.This lyric was penned by Acharya Atreya.Singer Ghantasala.

You bear ten months your children, and you bear all the troubles along your life
Now, are you going alone to the burials with having no one of your own..?

Life is just like the ripples in the sea
And life is like a chess playing by The God
Who is who in this game..
And how far all these so called relations...!

Somebody comes out of your womb
And somebody comes to lift your yoke when you die
Somebody comes to light your pyre
But who will come with you  after that..? 

Love is just like a jail,even if you try to flee out
Some unknown affection bind you
And want you to pay the debt

Death can not wait ,for there is no husband with you
This log (here human body) must be burnt by those logs
The pyre shall not be off,with the tears flown
These flames could touch the soul there in the heaven..!



padimasalu moshavu pillalanu
bratukantaa moshavu badhalanu
inni mosina ninnu
mosevallu leka velutunnavu

ee jeevanatarangalalo
aa devuni chadarangamlo
evariki evaru sontamu
entavarakee bandhamu

kadupu chinchuku puttindokaru
katiki ninnu mosedokaru
talaku korivi pettedokaru
aapai neto vachedevaru(2)(ee jeevana)

mamate manishiki bandikhaanaa
bhayapadi tenchuku paripoyinaa
teliyani pasham ventabadi

teliyani pasham ventabadi

tali kattina magadu ledani

ee kattenu kattelu kalchaka manavu
aa kanneellaku chitimantalaravu
ee mantalu aa gundenu antaka manavu(ee jeevana)

Three Baby goats

Here we can find three baby-goats ,happily taking rest under the mild sun rays as it was not so hot around.All they are in thick black and no other color spots on their gossamer skin.Maybe they are of some days old by age.Had not controlled myself to click the innocently envisaged creatures in a village where I happened to be there.

A Pragmatic approach for poetry selling


                                        Sheik Sadiq Ali


The wheels set in a motion at last for reaching out poetry to the doors of its lover.Sheik Sadiq Ali innovated an unprecedented way to sell the Telugu poetry.He embarked a four wheeler with filled up collections of poetry which he received by various poets and publishers.There are no dearth of poets in the land of Telugus but selling of the poetry is not an easy job.So far,Sadiq Ali in receipt of 130 titles.

                                     A book lover with the four wheeler 

He usually starts with his "Topudu Bandi" or vehicle by 9 a.m. and came back by 5 p.m..,the vehicle with four wheels visits different areas in Hyderabad.The people who got interested flock  around it and keep purchasing the books of their interest.

Tomorrow is Maha Sivaratri

Here I want to present a place where a small and obscurely known temple of Lord Siva is located,all set to have a big  rush tomorrow as it is going to be the Maha sivaratri.The hill top temple of Kedareswara Swami located in a peaceful area by the banks of River Godavari.On some special days,the temple draws more number of devotees.Especially like Maha Sivaratri.Other wise it remains always in solitude with handful of people who are there to guard.Actually the temple falls in the village of Peda Raavi gudem,Burgum pahad Mandal of Khammam district.Maha Sivaratri will be celebrated there with pomp and  people would come here from far off place.
