Why defy Your nature?

(3587) Bhalor ceyeo tumi bhalo

Still more than excellent, You are fine; Even so You've stayed remote, why? You alone are the gloomy heart's light; Why have You bestowed a new-moon night? My One desired from so many ages Floral thread of a hundred smiling gardens... Many eyes, their tears of bliss... Why are You hidden, mist thereby? Even more than honey are You sweet: A homeland in the seven spheres. So down to ground I bow before Thee; Why are You not giving reply? Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Adrift

(3586) Sahase manase eso

Smiling, in the mind please come, The mental Gopal mine. Awake I am staying for Your sake; Falls the stream from my eyes. For ages having watched the path, Many a lifetime has elapsed, vigilant. But You did not arrive, took not a garland; You did not understand non-stop desire. Psyche's Jamuna remains not seated; Upstream does it run at times, or else it ebbs. Within Your midst it craves residence; Yourself it seeks time after time. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

When stars sing

(3585) Aj gan geye jay tarara

Today singing a song go on the stars; Paying heed, I begin hearing. On thought a star pours stream ambrosial; My heart is upsurging. From land to land floats a song, Into all consciousness, in every heart. Enveloping the mote of dust, molecule, and atom, Psyche's door is opening. Through the octave inside music-methods, Song gives sway on heaven's vault. Range of vision having reached, by pulse it drives amok; Periphery's block it is ignoring.

Making the leap of faith

(3584) Niilakashe oi balaka

On azure sky yon flight of geese, Having rose, it goes to which unknown place? Chasing that, mind races, solitary; Where's the nest, no sight does it obtain. In light and darkness it's concealed– This cozy abode, always ideation-smeared. Under the tow of love flutter wings; They find the right address, having chased. After spreading wings of action and knowledge, They go to devotion's target. Contemplating that, all else forgotten, He concedes, the Formless One in divine play. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Cowboy, You belong to me

(3583) Amar maneri gopal

The Gopal of my psyche, You're in each and every molecule, Gargantuan in plurality. My holy endeavor of many ages, With affection, smiling is its floral thread, The mind's partridge,[1] become fervent, For Your sake, it's overflowing. I wanted no other close by; Yours is the jewel-mine. Lightning and thunderbolt inside, Woke for endless time, You are there. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

To play the game and be amused

(3582) Tandrajarima ja chilo amar

What had been my drowsy inertia, Master, You withdrew. Now on this dark night, same night of ebon. Inaction-induced weight of ignorance, It went far away in a second. What had been beyond my concept, Now that too became perception-held. Lit by a hundred suns' effulgence, Gloom in prison You transformed. With such cosmic magic is Your divine play: Each instant with delight, an ever-new game. Thought of birth's amazing wish to make Comes with a sportive implication.

Chiaroscuro

(3581) Tomar aloke andhare eki liila

In light and darkness Yours is such a sport; A game amazing, You dance at times right and wrong. In Your company, there is no vision mine; You are deft, adept are You. Yourself have I held dear; I know not if You truly love me. Still I like to get You nigh; I am bewildered, I'm confused. My days come and go uselessly Amid only the routine things. By simply contemplating Thee, peace I find; You are sweet, honeyed are You. Sarkarverse article Audio recording
