My Gopal is permissive

(3457) Amar gopal hariye geche

My Gopal has got misplaced;
At mind's Vrindavan I weep.
Calling and calling Him, I don't obtain;
Nonetheless, hope to heart I leash.

I did not hear His words;
Only pain have I transferred.
A garland of love's color
I thread, yet ne'er did I make wear.

Candor has He wanted;
Mine had been a line curved.
On a crooked path Himself to gain,
I have craved constantly.
I think in the end is brooking
Sin, if today He appears.

The Love of each life

(3456) Sharada sanjhe smita shephalii

On autumnal evening, a smiling night jasmine,
With sweet scent Whom does she wish to receive?
The white cloud by a sound gentle,
It goes on busting all boundary.

To hinder her is no one else,
Equivalent to a thrill each moment.
At Earth's end, at the frontier Heavenly,
A cradle of divinity she swings.

Mind forgets about many persons;
Life is suffused by ardor for one.
Boundless, the One latent in a throng;
With that is implication throbbing.

Who could ask for more?

(3455) Ganete esecho dola diyecho

With song You have come, swing You have given;
On the mind color You have varnished.
You are unequaled, incomparable.
You have loved, light You have lavished;
You are everyone's Beloved.

Even at the start of Creation, You'd been there;
Mid those formed, You had stayed concealed.
With bright eyes and handsome mien;
For everyone's welcome, You are fit.

Everybody prays for Your protection.
By hearing and contemplating with thought anxious.
In wisdom and beyond, with a mental flow of ambrosia,
You're deserving of perpetual worship.

Feelings

(3454) Nayane chilo kajal jatanari jal

In eyes had been antimony; agony's tears,
He washed that away.
Who pained the mind, pray do tell;
Why to cry did He make?

Where He dwells, please do say–
Yourself He impairs.
Hence the eyes, they cascade;
Heard He not that mental tale.

That Beloved, is He so much ruthless–
Yourself He has left afflicted.
Why He smiles sweetly then,
If He did not understand heart's pain?

You light up my lane

(3453) Duhkher dine bandhu amar

On sorrow's day, my bosom friend,
Hope of a life despondent,
Enveloping Your reverie,
Suffused is my fondness.

To walk the path I recall Thee;
I witness You through the eye's tears.
By Your wealth, the mind pervading,
Psyche's fog You expel.

Breath in and out is per Your will;
By Your kind grace thought's honey is.
You are the smiling moon, a heart within;
You rid mistake, way You present.

I will never fathom it

(3452) Svapane dekhechi bhalabesechi

In dream I have seen and I have loved–
Before eyes there's no meeting;
It had been in deep sleep, in deep sleep.
On sandalwood, by unhurt psyche
I have understood that You have come to my dwelling.

You're my own, more than my all;
You observe an atom, with properties a collection.
In both happiness and sorrow, You are my companion;
Love You pour with splendors aplenty.

In Your presence, getting and not getting are equal;
You understand the things needed and their wherewithal.
To the damned You give ablution, to the spurned, honor;
What You execute is beyond imagining.

The Formless Being

(3451) Vasanta viithikay phulamalikay

On a springtime avenue lined with floral wreaths,
Who arrived with ankle-bells on feet:
Him I do not recognize, Him I never saw.
In a formless courtyard by form's sorcery,
His own self He goes on scattering,
Unflinching, oh with open heart.

In river-water with the dew's oscillation,
At temple of thought with foliage of color,
You've remained, You're pervading everyone,
Whatever mind espies, what the eyes regard.

Much as I continue thinking, no limit is there;
At each compass-point I obtain that Charming Entity.
On mountain peak and at ocean bottom,
His glory emanates, Him everyone does recall.
