Ka Tvam Balah

Thinking of a name for my blog space, I was reminded of the first poem
I learnt in Sanskrit (and probably the only one I can remember). 
It goes like this:



Ka Tvam Balaa

Kanchanamala

Kasya putri

Kanakalatayah

Kim te haste

Thalipatram

Ka va rekha

Ka Kha Ga Gha nga



It is believed that Kalidasa was once asked to write a poem which ended
with the first five alphabets of the devanagri script...and this is
what he came up with! 



Well, that has anyway served its purpose of becoming my first blog on rediffiland.
