Your two-way street



(2032)  Tumi jakhan ele ghum bhaunge ni

When You came, my slumber broke not;
Why did You retire?
What words You had said, I heard not;
But I know that You had smiled.

Still now on that path, on the way You had arrived,
With colored flowers blossoming, You reside...
In the beauty of hues, in the liquor of perfume,
You gave and left behind.

Still now on that path, on the way You have left,
There's not any liveliness or even beguiling dress...
On the strings of heart's lute, in hurt lyrics and tune,
I scrub with the water of eyes.

  1. Then I was pained, and even now it stings. Okay You came in secret, but why did You leave?
