A few clay planters (translation from Joy Goswami)

 A few clay planters, and my bones within

Plant a tree, and I will scream "roots, roots!"


A few ponds, and beneath them my dead face

If you come to bathe, I'll say "may lotuses bloom."


A few crematoriums, my nameless corpses burn

If you drop a single tear, I will be reborn.
