Helpmate

(21)  Tumi alojhalamal purnimadiip

You're the glittering full-moon light,
On a cloudy night;
You're the Cynosure for those who've gone astray,
On a lonesome way;
And You're the sweet liniment for every affliction,
Within reach of all.

I have yearned for Thee in every deed,
Amid unspoken agonies.
In the same way as the wretched pray,
Yourself have I craved.
Day and night, You are there,
In happiness, in misery.
On every journey, to assuage my grief,
You are always with me.
