Devotion is Your gift to me



(3704) Kusumastabak mor chilo hate

A floral bouquet had been in hands mine...
With eyes bright and hopes dyed
By purple glow of an impassioned life.

In what fashion to invite, I was not knowing;
With what tune to recite, I was not grasping.
Obscure had been my right austerities;
On Your way of advent had been lids of eyes.

I know not why I'd held You dear;
Why I'd yearned for You, that too I do not see.
Hey the One Ever-Unknown, You're in tempo and in melody;
A sunray shining, with the crimson dawn You arrived.

I've been drenched



(3703) Jyotsnaloke smita pulake

With smiling delight are You in moonlit splendor;
To the realm of form You had come.
With many a flash every second,
You had lavished heaps of love.

In wanting You had been ardor;
Upon getting You, satiated the mind was.
On taking You, the stream of thought,
Dancing, it rushes on with a roar.

Having mused on You, mind's peacock gambols;
In Your realization is ideation's completion.
With the wine of sweetness on a conceited one,
You went on sustaining a golden waterfall.

Even if I wanted to



(3702) Bedaradii bandhu

Callous Lover,
You break my slumber, coming beside,
In case oh having thought on Thee,
Into sleep I glide.

There is no one else to call mine;
Own is everyone, only with You do I find.
Lord, You are heartless, as comfort I desire,
Despite the fact that Yourself love I.

You are mingled with my arm ring;
Through earrings Your radiant splendor beams.
Upon the mirror of psyche and in dream,
Waiting, You've remained all the time.

Is it just perversity?



(3701) Vasante kena na ele

Why did You not come in the springtime;
Came You with a summer's heat like forest fire.
Pearly maintenance casting aside,
With éclat of ashes and matted hair, You arrived.

There had been sevantii, there had been Spanish cherry;
There had been malatii, there had been madhavii
There had been campak, parul, and camelii;
You came with datura and margosa on all sides.

There had been Chinese silk and earrings golden,
Golden bracelets and armbands jeweled.
There had been necklaces, bright emerald-begemmed;
Then why, with rudraksa oh why see I?

Onward, ever onward



(3700) Jiivan sarita mor bahe jay

My life-stream, it flows onward.
Dancing it races, unknown what it tells;
What is that heavenly realm it looks toward.

Oh the Unknown Guest, lunar date You don't respect;
Rather, a fast-moving love-song in throat ever,
Please say, it races to which place unfamiliar?

Demolished, this my river's coastlines two;
Even then, it is always painted by Your hue.
To be broke, my psychic mirror won't continue;
Upon it Your splendid beauty sparks!

Your name's merit



(3699) Hatashay nirashay man deke jay

In despair, despondency, mind goes on calling
Unto You, oh Lord; it is non-stop.
Whether You listen, to know, I cannot;
Just that You are pleasant do I fathom.

Every moment, trice, and microsecond, You dance, Master;
Self-born and endless, unfinished are You ever.
You had been, You are, and staying You'll continue;
Nonetheless, I go on seeking Your habitation.

Constraint of river from mountain, You heed not;
Ocean or wave, You consider not.
With just Your light-beams all go on dancing;
Your appellation is sin's annihilation.

Only then You come nigh



(3698) Lukiye patha cala e kii liila

Wayfaring hidden, what is this liila;
Into public view why don't You come?
To behold You, in thought to cling,
Crave they, the ones You love.

This Your motion tortuous, does it benefit anybody;
By a plain and straight path catches not a psyche?
Unaltered age after age is that reality;
Even a trace of that within You, is there none?

Otherwise could this my understanding be mistaken;
You are unequaled by ordinary units of measurement.
When going to fathom Thee, any other notion mixing,
Then embrace not granting, You laugh, staying afar.
