Have a good good night insomnia!
Sleep gripping your pillow tight.
You've kept me up the whole of my night;
Now you can sleep, the owl of my life.

I had asked peace for a moment;
You gave me these silent lonely nights.
I asked for a company;
Loneliness and you now clearly accompany my fright.

I wished my heart could be in,
In touch with nature's wonders.
But, you've now turned me into,
A silent lover, who just quietly ponders.

Have a good good night insomnia!
It's now your time of rest.
My whole night, you were there at your best.
And you just got another one coming up with my protest.

But someday, dear insomnia,
You'll bid me a fair-well, I hope;
When excess of me I'll dope.
And, you'll say,
Good good night Kasturi,
Go sleep tight; you too have the right.
But for now, you sleep, the owl of my life.
Have a good good night insomnia!
