My consolation prize



(3074)  Tumi jadi nahi ele, kena alo jharale

When You did not arrive,
Why did You exude light?
Why did You make blooms rise?
Why did You fondly like?
Why the mind You did excite?

On a scent of belá and júthi jasmines You float in;
Having called the mental bee, with rapture You grin.
Both drowsiness and darkness You rid;
Sweetness did You coat on mind.

At every step of life, You exist;
Heart's crystal, resplendent You've made it.
Through cadence, song, and dance, You've been avid;
Lively is the memory that shines.

  1. Before me You did not rise, but brightly shine the mementos You left behind.
