I become devout

(3611) Tomar katha bheve bheve, divanishi ashru jhare

About You ever thinking, Day and night exude tears. Far away You stayed, Darling, This my house, made gloomy. By the pitch-black magic of a rainy night, To get You close, the mind desires... Alas, like stamen of screwpine, Upon gloom, hope goes sailing. On the fragrance of Autumn shephalii, A raft of white cloud is floating... You came not into proximity; Vainly I dress up, flowers replete. With the tender dawn of my Springtime, By fresh green leaf, a colored sky... Searching for where You be, I run dry, Hell and heavens ever rambling. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Total submission

(3610) Ami gan geye jai

A song I go on singing. No wealth is mine, no strength of piety; And thus I pray for mercy. Throat You've given me, myself You gave ardor; You've given a life full of honeyed impulse. I proclaim capitulation by a hundred means. Just foot-dust am I, I'm Your molecule; Seated in cognition's Gokul, You play on a bamboo flute. That same sound of reed pipe, I hear at heart's core; By pull of the Infinite, boundary I defeat. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Could it be?

(3609) Anek vedana diye anek ankhi jhariye

By means of immense agony, too much having wept, My Hardhearted Lord, You have come. What You want, that too, I don't know; What You speak, I don't fathom that also. I but know, just understand: Myself have You loved. I know not if greatly remote You dwell; Is that why pain does not penetrate ear's tunnel? Or maybe deliberately, You pretend to be deaf; Else, You don't wish to let know what You've thought. You paint a portrait of Your divine sport; Mayhap unawares You sketch, You stay deep in thought. To start-middle-finish You pay no attention; At length and irrespective, smiling, on You've gone. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I seek an unearned grace

(3608) Bhuloke dyuloke eki mayay

On Earth and in Heaven with amazing magic, You made dance to melody and cadence, Lord. Each and every instant flashes splendor; From Creator to blade of grass You infused affection. Every moment there is such a flow thrilling; Ever flashing, it comes with a glow, all-pervading. In thought and contemplation is auspicious gleam; Through pollen, You scattered impact of love. Hey my Deity, that You not ignore my story, I have no biography or any effort holy. Strength of virtue or awareness, know it isn't there; But even then, grace does a waiting mind implore.

I think of You only

(3607) Tomakei smaran kari

I remember only Thee; To You alone in thinking I cling. Why don't You arrive adjacent, Oh my ruthless Lord Supreme? My days come and vanish, Rotating in vain upon an axle. Absent You, survival is at risk; A pitcher I infuse with venom deadly. Day's lustrous rays and magic of moonlight; A floral garden and a cooling shadow mild... Lose worth all things of mine; Yourself alongside, no equal is there. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I was blind

(3606) Andhakarer antarete

At gloomy dark's inside, With light-stream You arrived. I didn't recognize, I could not know To me You were so kind. Ever gazing at the path, a bloom fell; Always singing, the bird slept. I knew not, I could not follow Where You hid and why. Eyes opened, I took note; What's this: Near and far, it's You alone. By moonlight, such ambrosia, the desert To the lees You did provide.

What's the deal anyway?

(3605) Pathapane ceye ceye

Ever looking toward the path, So many nights disappear. It came not on those nights sweet: Came not that southern breeze. My pain do You not realize, And is that why You're hiding eyes, Yourself keeping far aside... Me alone and left behind, In this rainstorm most severe? Have You forgot I am a molecule, My body by Your thought resolute, I, a firefly; the sun, You... Yet still You play a bamboo flute, Having kept far away at this time unpromising?
