For me You do everything



(3641) Maner gahane ele bujhi na kii mayabale

I don't grasp by what magic strength You entered mental depths;
By which wile of that liila I know not what You fancy?
An ambrosial smile on lips, penetrating secretly You did persist;
None can imagine why a divine play You go on creating.

From time immemorial, eternally You continue floating;
Having called from place unseen, to core of heart You speak.
Above the realm of form, the sweetness-coated Formless,
Hiding own identity, filthiness, off You carry.

Your equal in the three worlds, there is no other;
At Heaven, Earth, or Hell, a second I don't discover.
The God effecting liberation, all-pervading Lord,
Unseen light having smeared, light's song You sing.

Yet nothing do we comprehend



(3640) Kadambavane ele venuka bajabe bale

As You will play a bamboo flute You came to a kadam forest;
Oh Dark Prince,[1] awesome is the Cosmic Game!
Embrace You don't allow, what You want You don't avow;
How moves the world You don't say.

Endless is Your liila, there's no outer edge of thought;
Yourself I find above all time, right or wrong.
You are light continuous, descending with compassion;
Through thought that kindness coruscates.

In mind's paradise is Mohan accompanied by sweetness;
Hey the Milkmaids' Darling, You exist every moment.
Upon Jamuna with upstream flow does love race,
Consciousness through sympathetic grace.

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.

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.

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.
