Some Road Side Romeo Poetry (Sanskrit)

A Sanskrit poem by me. Grammar is ok. I checked.




कन्दारत्न, भाग्यवान् पुरुषाः अभवन् ते
भवतेः वक्त्रस्य दर्शनाय अलभन्त
महालय तक्षेयुः स्म्रितेः॥


Pronunciation:
Kandāratnā, bhāgyavānam puruṣaā abhavan te
bhavaḥte vaktraysā darshanāye alabhant
māhālaye taksheyuh smritey


Translation:

Most excellent young girl,
Lucky were the men
who were blessed with a vision of you...
they should build a temple in memory of the experience
which is nothing less than religious...
