And yet He graces me

(1475)  Phuler vane bhomra elo gunguniye

In a floral jungle the bumblebee came a-humming;
Please state the reason, please state the reason.
In a corner of the mind, a light-ray appeared,
Glittering, just glittering.

In the lantern was no kerosene;
Not even a wick to ignite was there...
Why a flame was kindled there also,
Who really knows, who really knows?

The One Whom I never contemplated
And anticipated not one bit...
Why then is He come today,
Calling me this way, calling me this way?
