I know it cannot be...



(3474) Kena ananderi jatrapathe

Why on a passageway of only happiness,
Alone am I, alone I am?
So many persons are there, so many rays of light;
On Earth and in Heaven is a painted portrait.

Spores of floral pollen, a blossom they move with;
On secluded forest path is reed pipe of the Flautist...
Rush wheels of a chariot, summoned by its sonance.

Somewhere is there not anybody mine–
Only that I ponder at depths of mind.
All-pervasively You exist with a love flawless,
By a sweetly charming manner dabbed.

I haven't a clue



(3473) Ei puspita kadambatale

Under this same blossoming Cadamba tree,
I had been in tears.
Along with the frogs, on a solitary seat,
I'd sat at a space lonely.

A cloud goes on calling and makes the peacock dance;
A dream-entwined mind does flash.
By Whose loving affection, through an unknown liking,
Surges my dispirited psyche?

Pollen of screwpine is afloat on the breeze;
With new tears a jui jasmine fragrance beams.
However many closed doors had belonged to me,
By power of Whose mantra, they opened in a wink!

He appears, He sings, He leaves



(3472) Niipanikuinje venukapuinje

At a kadam grove with bamboo accumulation,
Peacock-calls invoke Whose invitation?
Whose love did infuse hope
In an eye-blink, adorned by horripilation?

On the Northeast corner floats collyrium;
At Southwest is the moon's smile luminous.
Approaching from afar, in hope of apprehension,
Peacocks dance to His thrilling vibration.

Who is that Unfamiliar Guest, smiling sweetly?
In a wink He comes and goes, lunar day disregarding.
Hymns like nectar's essence, constantly does He sing,
With a sensitivity of the Ever-Unknown One.

He does it all



(3471) Alo jvalo kena aji

Today why do you kindle light;
By moonlight the world is filled.
With delight the moon's smile
Plays a flute, dripping ambrosia.

A flower goes not near to anyone;
Around her dances everyone.
If she looks at someone,
She but says: To me surrender.

Of this springtime, there's no likeness;
In a dream, heaven and hell are knit.
Due to the One many awaken;
Love's flow is exhausted.

Lord, please hit pause



(3470) Balo ekbar ami tomar

Tell just once that I am Thine.
Musing I've moved, I've searched for You;
I've been apprehensive oftentimes.

Lured by the world having become,
I've lost both heart and mind, direction I've lost.
Though having been my polestar, a market is brought
In front of me time after time.

My sun is in the west, daytime vanishes;
By way of a dust-game, don't persist forgotten.
Your sport divine, halt it for a moment,
Taking me, oh Darling, this time.

(3469) Tomar rather caka prabhu

Lord, the wheels of Your chariot,
Forward go they incessantly.
They move, vying with and dispelling darkness;
Variegated, their majesty.

Nobody stays left behind, lagging or fallen;
Everyone gets on board, helpless or afflicted.
Those people who, to climb up, are unable,
Lifting them, You receive.

Those passengers on the path of light,
All of them are one's allies.
Having broken the iron jail of mind,
In You they find a home everlasting.

Before eyes come Darling, love please accept
On this sweet evening.
Today neath the southern wind, a hawk-cuckoo sings
With bewildered psyche.

I have been awake for many ages
With a heady fondness.
By blossom's honeyed pollen,
This mind declares welcoming.

No more can hide-and-seek be borne;
That game took place times enough.
Quintessence I have known You are;
Though having known, does staying away succeed?

A song I go on singing, I make You hear;
Whether You listen, I know not.
I go on rehearsing tune with ideation to the full;
Linguistic considerations I heed not.

Earth goes on orbiting in shackles of love only,
With music mode, tempo, and beat, but the tones baffling...
That voice resonating on Your veena strings,
Anyone but You understands it not.

In tune's seven notes from an unfit one rumbling,
With rhythm and dancing stirred up by that melody...
My mental lute it wakens through that twanging;

Unknown and unfamiliar had You been,
While nearby, my same vicinity within.

You've remained in contemplation;
You've applied color to concentration.
Yet amok You have run with deception
By a web of magic.

Taking shape You have moved into thought.
By Shravana and Nididhyasana,

Saying nothing?
Hoping for Your advent, I go on reckoning moments
Through my pain-filled tears.

Solar entity arrives at morning–
Into life it pours a light stream;
But mind's ebony stays hard to reach,
Unspeaking and very deep.

Behind western mountain[1] does the sun proceed,
With the evening hues sparkling,
The moonlit night's magic ringed
By bright and blithe vivacity;
But my gloom, it is extreme,
Like antimony unsleeping.

As You came not before eyes, in thinking mine,
Please come to my lonesome retreat.
In life ever gazing toward arrival path,
With hope I am surviving.

In my tiny rose garden
Come no flowers, but are thorns;
Those thorns are giving prick.
Like ebb tide after flood,
I am restless, patience am I missing;
On this cruelty, always I am thinking.

Even at present a good time is there:
The air vernal on this night Phalgunii.[nb 2]

Neath this full moon with a moonlight very soothing.

Hey the One Who's fit for welcome.

You are in every form although being formless,
The bodiless consciousness in scent and incense.
In winter's mist and in a shower's burflower,
Hey the One Who's worthy of reception.

In meditation pose, concentration, and control of breath,
In a crude container or the mental room gem-bedecked,
In every situation, beyond comparison.

Neath an extreme rainstorm's beating You are there;
You dance on the sweet wind of a southern breeze.
In the tune of nor'wester, You compose prosody,
Every moment with the air and with fire.

In winter a coolness, then the summer warmth;

Neath the rain a-pitterpatter on this night,
Psyche craves You only, for You alone yearns the mind
Under hailstones, like a banner on the stamen of screwpine.

Today animated are the frogs;
Lost in darkness is the course of meteors.
At sound of a reed pipe the pond's brim is gorged;
By sonance does the kadam arbor's earth delight.

Having taken welfare's sprout in hand,
You always came along with dance.
Sin and gloom and foulness to ban,
Love's distilled nectar is the hymn in paradise.

That same full moon of Phalgun has returned, my Darling;
At psyche's forest please arrive, love do bring.
From each blossom on a bough of trees medlar,
Allow the pouring out of fragrance sweet and friendly.

Upon every tree a fresh greenery has arisen;
New buds have appeared with the springtime winds.
Blooms have gone on filling the mind's garden;
Your song's wicker tray, by that may You be pleased.

In cadence, beat, and music mode sing calls of peacock and cuckoo;
The psychic sweetness in their tune, it makes one swoon.
Hymns go afloat by stretching the strings of a lute
Oh You, please pull that nigh, unto Your proximity.

Do say, who else will understand my anxiety?

You have given meals, and You have given dwelling;
In winter, a covering and daily company.
Parental tenderness and a home affectionate;
You have given everything with sweetness replete.

Of desire there is naught in this world unrealized;

In happiness and sorrow, You are ever alongside;
And yet I pray for mercy, hey Ordainer of Destiny.

So with devotion humbly do I offer my poverty.

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.

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

Mid those formed, You had stayed concealed.

In wisdom and beyond, with a mental flow of ambrosia,

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,

Even when asked to come, He never gives an answer;
Yet even unrequested, to the heart does He surrender.
His honey-sweet liila, a fair filled with both form and flavor,
It makes everything brimming with ambrosia.

Not having kept externally, I will store internally–

In my mind, You're the whole charming adornment;
Jeweled throne is carefully bedecked.
Alas, I cannot show it, veiled by darkness gloomy;

In course of time, and beyond time;
Filling the world, You've remained.

If anyone remains familiar with Him,
Please tell Him about me.
In Fall, the gaps of my white clouds betwixt,
Destiny has made my sorrow stream.
I don't forget Him, I cannot ignore;
For even now He is my heart complete.

He keeps on giving an unending cradle
At my deepest recess psychic.
Only a delightful honey drops below,
When going to search for Him.
I did not forsake hope, breaking I could not;
By the light of meditation I know He will yield.

No more run about



(3431) Tomar tare anek ghure

For Your sake having rambled much,
I resolved no more I'll go anywhere.
On the bank of mind's Jamuna,
To give embrace this time will be.

Upon passageway, a stream of thought,
I will remain in a frenzy Yourself for.
At Thy holy feet crimson,
Fixedly will I go on staying.

I've gone about, heeding vows and sacred days;
Many a pilgrim-site visit I have made.
Unto humanity schism I've conveyed;
Contemplating crux, rubbish have I chased.

Worthless?



(3430) Ami tomay bhalabasi, tumi jano na kena

In love with You am I,
Why don't You know this?
For You I laugh and I cry;
It's like You don't listen.

Days after days, they leave;
Nights aplenty, they go missing.
Many stars afar are falling;
Don't You realize it?

I've arrived from the Beginningless;
I drift on stream of the Limitless.
At Your foot a spore of pollen,
Myself, are You not familiar with?

Oh so dreamy



(3429) Alokatiirthe lasye nrtye

At light's shrine with a dance-pose loving,
You appeared in a dream,
In a dream, oh in a dream.
Transcendent and well-versed in prosody,
With Your anklets ringing.

All things had been colored ebon;
That was giving gloom with a shove.
Removing it from everyone and filling psyche,
You gave a sweet resonating.

With such sweet ideation, every day please arrive,
To abate the filthiness of mine.
Upon the horizon like a blue lotus smiling,
Having brightened the existence of a unit being.

What is happening?



(3428) Tumi kabhu kandao kakhano hasao

Sometimes You make cry, sometimes laugh You cause;
What You fancy, I can't comprehend.
Sometimes You observe, other times You ignore;
Having pondered liila, I go on, become speechless.

Summer's bracing jui garland,
Juthika wetted by monsoon exudation,
And the night jasmine smiling upon dusk of Autumn,
Why You bring; the answer I don't get.

By the pre-winter's pallid-pleasant quality,
By wintry inertia honed and quivering,
By the springtime's floral beauty;
What You keep telling, that I only guess.
