Remember me

(3311) Tomar ganer malay

Upon Your song's garland,
I am just a single blossom.
With Your tune, raag, and beat,
I sway to and fro, a pendulum.

In Your presence I don't want a thing;
In Your rocking cradle is everything.
Life's pollen is a smiling fondness,
A love crimson.

Please keep me very near;
At heart this mercy I entreat.
Under stormy winds and sleet,
Please give a peerless tremor.

Admittedly I did not recognize Thee

(3310) Tumi esechile diipika jvele

Igniting a lamp, You had come;
You gave a touch of love.
I didn't know You, I understood not Thee;
With a gentle breeze upon sky-blue color,
That love-stream goes on flowing.

You've arrived with a fest of light;
At mental depths, neath open tent You've smiled.
Thoughts abstract You've infused mid empty mind;
That thing to whom, who makes clear?

In the gloomy darkness the frightened persons,
Fearless You made and drew them all along.
You declared: "I'm in existential celebration,
Brightly painted on this mundane sphere."

Still not convinced

(3309) Asoniko loker bhire

Amid a worldly throng You did not arrive;
Came You on an avenue of mind.
You came on an avenue of mind.
You arrived through tears from eyes;
Wiping of eyes You did provide.

Non-stop is a living being's coming and going;
Hence they think it's same for Thee.
This very feeling, a sense of Your visiting,
Living beings get, themselves being mobile.

By Your radiant splendor, of me
All the load of weariness You are removing.
You are mine, oh Dearest Darling;
If a kindness occurred, I will realize.

Truth be told

(3308) Tomar priitite phul phote kanane

By Your love a flower blossoms in the forest;
Whereto will I go, Yourself abandoned?
At Your feet my bowing You accept;
Ever will I expect benison.

Without stalk a lotus does not exist;
That flower is its load, even being tarnished.
With Your love my world is filled;
Yourself, how will I ignore?

Mental Lotus, You live in the mind;
Even though infinite, You keep touching confines.
Brightly smiling, lovingly, honey You apply;
Where shall I find a gem analogous?

He knows me so well

(3307) Kamal kali kandcho kena

Why are you weeping, Lotus Bud?
News of Whom has struck psyche?
Like a frosty wind at evening,
Oh Who has infused grief?

Inmost thoughts please tell to Me.
For Your sake, Who had appeared?
By a speck of love touching thee,
Away has He taken all honey.

In a lotus grove you dwell;
A spotless mind you wrap in scent.
You eschew filthiness.
Who has understood you wrongly?

Love makes all the difference

(3306) Bhalabasa elo jiivane, kena ke jane

Love came into my life;
Who knows why, who knows why?
Absorbed in meditation sunk have I;
I've been trussed by earnest desire.

In a wink, the thick-cinched ice left melting;
Golden and aglow, thrilling It rose blossoming.
In psyche a sense of kinship came for everybody...
All things Thine... cadence and song thereby.

The clouds abrim on firmament floated off instantly;
With moonlight the mind-sky glistened brightly.
What I imagined not, that came about, getting embodied
By lure of Your sweet-exquisite style.

Lord, please don't leave me

(3305) Tumi bhalabese esechile

Having loved You had come;
You have gone where,
Please do tell me.
Light's flame You had lit in the dark;
May that lantern not get extinct.

With atom and molecule, Yours is such a liila;
Amid all existence, You are the one aggregate.
In slumber and deep drowsiness, my time has passed;
Having wakened me, whereto do You disappear?

In the cosmos I exist by the wish of You only;
All my coming and going is at Your mercy.
Day and night, why they come, why oh why do they leave;
And why do I arrive, in this world, You alone perceive.
