I beg a fleeting glance alone...

(3372) Shuni tumi bhalabaso

I hear that You dote;
Why then do You stay remote?
And why, if that be so, myself
In tears, You keep disowned?

With You my acquaintance,
It's not a fact of just a few ages.
It had been before my attachment;
But spurn that attachment, please don't.

Day and night, evening and morn,
Time everlasting You are.
For an instant, all good or bad times ignored,
A brief look at me please throw.
