The crowded pageant that thy walls unfold
Before the wondering eye: proud prince, calm sage,
Processions, armies, leaders, statesmen bold,
And woman’s loveliness undimmed by age,
Moves forward in an ever-swelling stream
Of life before which baffled Time recedes.
Wild Nature, netted in the magic gleam
Of pigments, smiles in trees and flowers and meads.
Surprising patterns from thy ceilings daze
The upturned eye with varying curve and line:
Here, mystic bulls transfixed in endless gaze,
There, swan and lotus linked in one design.
Ajanta, nameless though thy artists be,
Transcending self, their art survives through thee!
