Everyone depends on Him

(1914)  Je tomare bhalo beseche

The one who has held You dear,
Do You just belong to her;
And if so, why do contrite sinners
Fix eyes on only Your visage?

Into everyone alike the air infuses life,
A song in steady stream of quarter tones sings the sky,
And paying heed to no fault is the moon's honeyed light;
All of those are shared in common.

Of all who are noble You are most high-minded,
Inanimate or animate, to one and all largehearted;
Oh Guardian of Orphans, You are the patron cosmic...
You are the lord and master of everyone.
