His song sublime



(3145)  Ganer tarii bhese jay

The boat of song goes a-sailing;
It sails on, it goes on sailing.
It comes from which river-shore;
It speeds toward which sea?

To mortal realm ambrosia's wares it has brought;
Upon Earth a heavenly sweetness it has poured.
By rhythm and beat the cosmos has been stuffed
With a name-unknown meaning.

It has told many anecdotes from days of yore;
It has driven wild with melody's strong emotion.
Those with perturbed psyche, stone-struck,
On a veena's jingle become giddy.

  1. The music imbues life with a fine significance I cannot describe.
