Picturing nirvana

In the fields of Bali
Amidst the humid terraces
Under a gods' eye
In the green river
And aside papaya
I fell into a slumber
A deep sleep,  
Picturing Nirvana

That is when I tasted
The sweet scent of green banana pancake
Drizzled in coconut juice
And fragrance of youth

Along these terraces
I lay down,
blissfully

The next morning
When meeting the medicine man
He laughed
And said truly,
The god of luck,  Barong
Was smiling upon my heart

For this I am truly grateful
