Wasn't that moon last night just delightful? ♥

With the Virgo lunar eclipse last night, I decided to draw a Grus virgo. Known as koonj or kurjan in India, they are popular in the literature and the arts.

By the way, a little announcement—I have a bluesky, feel free to follow there!

[kurja-tales]

लस्करिये ने यूँ कही, क्यूँ परणी छी मोय,

परण पाछे क्यों बिसराई रे, कुरजां ऐ भंवर मिला द्यो ऐ

Ask my beloved, why he left me after marrying me

Kurjan, I just want him to be here

In this folk song, the newly weds have depicted their separation by making the bird Kurja a medium. The Kurja bird, the Demoiselle Crane, comes to India every year from Siberia. In this folk song, the heroine depicts her separation. In search of employment, men had to leave their country and go to other places and some had to leave their country for war etc., as well as the means of transport were not enough to return immediately. Many months used to pass in the journey itself. In such a state, the women suffer in the agony of separation and ask the Kurja bird to inform the beloved.
