What is Your excuse?

(2597)  Bhalabasi tomay ami, cokher jale more bhasiye diyecho

Yourself I hold dear;
On tears You've cast me adrift.
At core of psyche the honey that's present,
Only that I've kept pouring; rejecting, You've grinned.

Of this hardheartedness, there is no comparison;
You look not back, and even seeing You ignore.
Nonetheless, I invite– I don't stay forgetting Thee;
I remain forgetting only that forgetful You have been.

I am puny, ringed by limitations;
In a scanty area, my perambulation.
You are huge, limitless and great;
Why have You gone on making such a liila?
