You bring the real me out



(3832) Gane gane bhare dile

You filled me with many a song;
Both sky and wind are You, my Dear.
Heaven's light, oh You brought,
With ecstatic rhythm and beat.

Those far away, close-by You hauled;
The stranger, own You transformed.
You made heard the tune of thought,
What still at inmost core does peal.

In the tunnel of my heart,
From unknown and unfamiliar,
Suddenly what's that flood
You made flow, hey Meditation-Worthy.

I don't believe You



(3831) Amar ganer chanda aji

Now, the rhythm of my song,
Far away has it gone missing.
Mind's peacock does not fathom:
Moon's behind a cloud-screen.

Whatever I may believe, lost have I become;
Everything still exists, but it got lost.
Behind Western Mountain,[1] the sun even gone,
On far side of horizon it resides gracefully.

Naught gets lost at any time;
In ignorance, oh Lord, I cry.
Despite understanding, I don't realize;
I imagine a false saying's proclaiming.

Start to finish



(3830) Dinanteri shrantir majhe

Amid the weariness of my day's last remainder,
In Him I get merely peace.
In the world He has no peer.
In the mental realm, He is my Prince;
In forest, with shape and color I receive.

In Him are held both molecule and atom,
With jewel and gold, always adorned.
He manifests through rays of love;
For Him I yearn, knowing or unknowingly.

He is the Ruler of a vast universe;
Of fate, finite and infinite, the Ordainer.
Every country's worshiped Master,
In just His melody, His song I sing.

I gave my all, but You came not



(3829) Tumi jadi nahi ele, kiser tare jege thaka

When You did not arrive,
For whose sake am I staying alert?
Because of whom a dwelling adorned,
The welcome-song kept rehearsed?

Having wandered in the mental garden,
Plucking blooms and filling basket,
A garland gets strung on love's thread,
Calling foolishly, Your path observed.

Forgetting all, one Entity considered,
In thought of a single Goal immersed,
Only one color's swiftness inner;
Having given all, deficit is covered.

Time for a change?



(3828) Tumi kena aso na balo na

Oh why You don't arrive, tell You don't;
You don't say, tell You don't.
Ever calling, so many days disappear;
A river of tears keeps flowing.
Age after age, go they missing;
And yet grace, why don't You show?

The sun is setting, thickens evening;
Moon, it watches in a new atmosphere.
But my dark night does not cease;
I don't grasp this kind of approach.

Many saplings become giant trees;
Meteor and star, away by time they wear.
What had been, dissolved it is getting;
What exists, on and on it does not go.

The Divine awaits



(3827) Mahaniiradhir opar hate

From the far side of the Great Sea,
Which is that strange melody comes floating?
Breaking ramparts of opposing danger,
To touch my soul, it enters ear.

In courtship, neath the crimson rays at morning,
With floral pollen the tune of a place remote it sings.
Having risen solitary in a mental cranny hard to reach,
It goes on saying that He holds me dear.

After evening prayers, at fall of night,
Myself it tells: "Barricade rending, do arrive!
I am waiting... I have brought a golden time;
That moon's smile mingles with all Deity."

Please appear



(3826) Ogo prabhu amar ghare

Oh Lord, to my dwelling
Won't You come, way mistaking?
Go in vain will a strung wreath;
Will fruitless prove the rice painting?

A song have I composed, melody I've practiced;
Love's offering I have embellished.
In a psychic niche privately,
I've kept a jeweled lamp blazing.

My lute-strings of mind
Keep on singing mantra Thine.
I am an instrument, and You, the Instrumentalist;
Tenderly, will You take, elevating?
