And everyone is in love

(139)  Tumi esechile niirava nishiithe

You'd arrived on silent night
To brighten my heart-sky.
No virtue had I, yet You'd come;
You'd been teaching how to love:
To hold every living being dear.

However much I would lose,
That much do I hold on to.
Whatever I try to forget,
I just cannot forget it.
The flute is Your destructive agent.

The flute, two banks flooding, heart-engulfing,
Having erased tears, a smile it completes;
That smile, it is devastating.
Breathtaking is that smile;
Breathtaking is that pipe.

Oh You, in all seasons on all days,
In my life, You're interlaced.
And in each body, every atom,
In my mind You're intertwined,
You are intertwined;
With mind You are intertwined.

You'd arrived on silent night
To brighten all that's mine.
No virtue had I, yet You'd come;
You'd been teaching how to love:
To cherish each and everything.
