Varanasi, India: As a child I could sleep any where, even with noise, songs & music or lights. In India such sleep is described as "sleeping after selling the horses". Now often I keep on turning in my bed even if it is quiet and dark. Today's images have people sleeping "after selling their horses" in the early morning bustle of Varanasi.

वाराणसी, भारतः बचपन में मैं कहीं भी सो जाता था. कितना भी शोर हो, गीत संगीत हो या रोशनी हो, जब सोता तो घोड़े बेच कर सोता. अब शाँत अँधेरे कमरे में भी कभी करवटे बदलता रहता हूँ. आज की तस्वीरों में वाराणसी के घाटों पर सुबह के कोलाहल में घोड़े बेच कर सोये कुछ लोग.

Varanasi, India: Da bambino potevo dormire ovunque, anche con rumori, canti e musica o luci. In India, il sonno profondo è descritto come "dormire dopo aver venduto i cavalli". Ora spesso resto a girare nel mio letto anche con tutta la quiete e il buio. Le immagini di oggi hanno alcune persone a Varanasi che dormono "dopo aver venduto i cavalli".
