Three times I saw
the lake overflowing,
one time the water
reached the sky.
I saw a single bridge
from Harmukh
to Kaunsar.
Seven times I saw
the lake emptied.
There are several interpretations of this poem's symbolism, and I am not in a position to be adding another. Most writers agree, though, that Lalla is talking about memories of past lives.The Valley of Kashmir stretches from the Harmukh Peak in the north to the Kaunsar Springs in the south. It is said to have been a lake full of water in earlier times.
