It is but fate

(2513)  Matir pradiip jvaliye rakhi

An earthen lamp I keep lit
In this cottage of adobe.
I want You with face smiling;
Eyes satiated, I will see.

No property is mine;
What is there, all is Thine.
I will give Your things to You
With loving tears.

You will stay the Gopal of mind;
At heart's lotus despite good and bad times.
Flute replete with cadence and melody,
Dance You will, hope encircling.
