Meghadūta by Kalidasa trans by Abhay K

deprived of his divinity by Kubera’s curse,
banished for a year away from his love,
made home at hermitages in Ramagiri
full of thick and shady groves
where Sita bathed once. 1

Separated from his sweetheart, lovesick,
having passed several months on these hills
his arms bare—golden bracelets fallen off,
on the first day of Asadha, he saw a cloud
embracing the mountain top like an elephant
engaged in playful thrusts against the river bank. 2
