Upon my sleepless eyelids



(745)  Jhatikar rate tumi esechile

On a stormy night You'd arrived,
Upon my sleepless eyelids.
You sent away my sense of fear,
You told me: "Don't worry... with you am I;
With You I have lingered."

You opened the door that was closed...
With Your own hand, drew back the bolt.
Spreading Your seat, You came to stay,
On that wild and dangerous night.

Set aquiver was my throbbing heart;
The feeling was most enchanting.
And in my mind, I felt the moment...
Beyond time's limit should it persist;
By no means should it finish.
