No golden loom or factory,
No spinning wheel like the proud Arachne
Assam women weave silk and cotton cloth, beautiful sarees.
Natural color, natural dyes, the finest threads and the subtlest yarns -
One can walk in the footsteps of the kings of Rajasthan
and not be put in the shade.
Kala cotton, Himalayan sheep wool, will he stay and take a wife
or travel among the mountains and clouds
finding colors and patterns in his own bizarre verses.
