A blue lotus

(3595) Esechilum asha niye

Getting hope had I come On a light-dripping morn In the song of a blue lotus.[1] At the time, blowing was a southern wind With heady-coated beckon. There had been no riches mine; Impoverished had been the partridge of mind. Drunken I had been; just slumber-driven desires Upon eyes had been drawn. Toward You to set my eyes, Suddenly, through Your light, Psyche's bumblebee, overwhelmed, did arise With a scant, sweet realization. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Casting my song upon the wind

(3594) Gan geye jai tomake shonai, shono kina jani nako

A song I go singing, to You I sing. Whether You hear or not, I don't know. I set tune afloat on a shoreless stream. Night and day for Your sake, A song current just cascades. Having circled its edifice, untamed, I paint color on a tranquil breeze. At Your smiling altar's base, Sprawling prostrate, offering is raised. In linguistic blossoms is a heart's tale; I imbue with pollen's honey. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Let the beat go on

(3593) Ganer gokule aj tumi esecho

Today the Gokul of song You have entered; Upon neck a gemmed garland, with mind You have mingled. On earth and in heaven there is not a second one: Your same sweetness, Your unrivaled love. Everybody coming and going round You endlessly, A world You've built from shower-stream of pining eager. There is not a thing unknown to You, Lord Nonetheless, also my heart's eagerness I inform. Please stay with me always, with affection unchecked, The song You've been absorbed in by sport in days former. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

How would I continue?

(3592) Alakhanirainjan bhavabhayabhainjan

The Unseen-and-Unblemished, Executioner of Mortal Fear, Collyrium of Profound Wisdom, You are endless, everlasting. A persistent delight, steadily pleasing, Demonstrating outright: You are increase, all-pervading. In the three worlds[1] no one else is Your equal; In You is the collection of generation, operation, and destruction. What had been, what exists, and what will come hereafter, With all is Your divine sport, wholly life-changing. The shape of imagination, You're my life's pleasure mundane: Cogitation's jewel, my entitative supreme welfare. Just a speck of Your grace is a gem of smiling affection, A love-starling's rhythmical dancing. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Memories we received

(3591) Mor jiivaner raunin diner

Of my life's colorful days, You had been a bud of neep. Rain-bathed and smiling when wet, To let sway a dangling earring. Having come at peacock's call and bird's chirp To go sailing on the far azure... Garland of stars, girdle of gems; They had not been the equivalent of Thee. A multi-colored day's motley bird Went flying into space, what is this? It's Your story, it's Your legend: Having bloomed, a blossom of memory. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Everything is by Your grace

(3590) Apsarar saje calecho kar kaje

In clothes of divine nymph You've moved by whose deeds; Within my life I yearn for Thee. Kindly arrive, with heart and mind thoroughly mingle; In this world, except You who is there? Why are You remote, please do appear still more near; Your message plays on my lyre strings. Oh King Unseen, the dense luster of my consciousness, It's in listening, cogitation, and often, deep reverie. Like a flight of geese on wing, the days depart; Behind they leave memory's tiny garland. Holy effort, ultimate salvation, my love's floral thread– Coming, going, staying– are at Your sacred feet. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Just by wanting Him

(3589) Tomar gane tomar dhyane

In Your song, in Your meditation, I had been absorbed. You came upon splendor's shore. To carry, there had been a southern wind; Then, tonal vibration soars. No one had been in my company; Frequently have I yearned internally. Heart's honey rendered empty, On the coast of love, it I poured. I've no weight of piety; Time after time I've begged for mercy. Having conferred immense grace endlessly, Embrace You granted, path ignored. Sarkarverse article Audio recording
