Comes the spring

(3639) Campakahare sajaye tomare

Having decked You with magnolia wreath. Today I'll seat upon raised platform. Let them tell me what they please... There's no use hearing that talk! A garland of malatii I've strung, Having arrayed a wicker tray for welcome.[1] With color-beauty, with leaf and with blossom, Effusive is the King of Seasons. Bugles of war ring out in harmony; The Cloud Walker reigns o'er meditation-beams. All shyness and any complex of infatuation, Now it's found to be tucked off. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Myself You cherished...

(3638) Bhalabesechile amare priya

You had loved me, Darling; In exchange, naught did You desire. I have taken charity, two hands filling; Able to give nothing was I. Light at the dark of night You have gone on giving; What is good You've apprised, discretion awaking. By thund'rous proclamation, You set afire ebony; Not even a matchstick's flame You acquired. Under the afternoon sun diminished, To me at ear did You whisper, by means furtive: "In gladness and in sadness and in grief, I am with; I did not forget you at any time."

Under tow

(3637) Tumi giitira saorabhe priitira rabhase

You are in fragrance of song, in love's passion; You have kept attracting the Earth. With splendid light rays, by invisible collection, Person after person You have conquered. No one is distant, no one unrelated; Everyone is Yours, equally acquainted. At depths of the mind, in a private kingdom, Everybody's story You've considered. Upon kush tips, the Prime Person is roaming, Coating on heart-core the sweetness of thinking. With ambrosial emission, sky and wind are filling; Glorious have You been.

Forever You accompany

(3636) Tomar tarei kata vyatha, tumi ki jano na balo more

Just due to You only, there's so much pain; Don't You know, myself please tell. Alas, with hope arrives and goes the day; Afloat my tears the night sets. Why is it that I had loved; And having loved, did this become? Ever crying, a life went off; Yet mind cannot forget. A streak of light from outer space, I'm not alone, to me proclaims. Boon companion ever, You're awake, Across the ocean of darkness. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Even when He comes nigh

(3635) Andhar sariye ele tumi priyatama

Eliminating darkness You came, my Most Darling. Beyond language, You'd been like a pendulum in thought; When to-and-fro is done, having become everyone's Most Near. I could not imagine that You will arrive. That You'll be gracious, never did I realize; It's hard to grasp Your play divine, hey the Unique Being. You're on mount and in abyss, having filled the midst of everyone. Psyche's peacock dances round and round Your splendor; In raiment of form You came, the Formless One Without Peer. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

It's You I crave

(3634) Manuser mane tumi sajatane

In the human mind are You, taking trouble; You built the altar, hey the One Who's Charming. With love-filled song and meditation on Beloved, That greatly excited the sky of psyche. Necessity is akin to making ready; In the blossom pollen is mixed with honey. Amid oyster shell pearl gets received; At every watch[1] You have kept decorating. A tiny string of buds threaded, You gave a garland; From body of the bee, a burning sting comes. Moonlight in dream is a girdle of infatuation With Your sweetness, Ruler of the Spheres. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Such delight

(3633) Kon raunina prabhate aruna alote

On some colored morning, on its crimson light-rays, You'd arrived, hey the Avatar of Sweetness. Earth, inert and motionless, got filled with vitality; By Your song, it became intent. Molecule and atom, dance-vivacious, Had awakened, being swollen with thought. Ocean-waves became water-raucous To greet You, hey Liila's Embodiment. History has forgot that same story, Ballad of the Great to break torpor and sleep. That same ancient tale, upon sky, in atmosphere, Still today it sails on, hey Lord Omnipresent.
