What's not to like?

(3619) Bahe madhu pavan e jyotsnay

Under this moonlight blows a wind that's sweet. By the touch of vernal breeze, aroma is impassioned; The cuckoo bird makes one hear what story? Earth is dancing with young, tender leaves in color; Floating is the scent of the molted blossoms. Along with the bastard teak and minds anxious, Silk-cotton trees go on smiling. The bed of medlars is coated with fragrance; The magnolia grove with trumpet flowers is gone mad. The floral ornaments, around foot wrapped, They allure with Nature's beauty. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

The last word?

(3618) Kunale kanta thake ke na jane

Who doesn't realize that thorns reside upon stalk; So does a lotus say "I won't uphold", pray tell, Beloved? I am not able to see in the late night dark; Even then, won't I walk on the path unknowable? What is not in my vicinity, is it then worth naught, Like a story that never more will I think of? Amid the insignificant abides a cream-collection; In a mine's dark abyss the lovely diamond sparkles. Foolish me, I've contrived many disparate mistakes; Having known the right theory, heed I have not paid. At evening having come today, the path I've attained; You shine upon a sea of twilight, glow fit to worship. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I pray for relief

(3617) Tumi alor pratibhu prabhu

Master, You are Light's Broker; Set aside the gloomy dark. At end of the protracted night, Do let dawn be brought. So much had I been waiting, Age after age by the hundreds aplenty. Of a dull-witted mind, stymied, Today, kindly note once more. Counting brief seconds, day has transpired; The night's darkness, alone and tongue-tied. With unreal knowledge life has gone by; Kindle the lamp of profound wisdom!  Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Don't be cruel

(3616) Tomar ganer tale tale necechi

Danced have I to Your song's many beats. Don't You know, don't You see I have held You dear? With crimson glow, dawn's newly risen sun; From sluggish wind, the smile of blossom. By consciousness sleep is broken; In Your direction, I've remained watching. At day's end beneath the evening star, To but one thought's some ektara, The music mode removes night's dark; Through just its tune I've met defeat.   Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Delusion and reality

(3615) Tumi kao na katha sunayana

Fair-eyed maiden, you say nothing; Why don't you speak? For whose sake, your tears run; Who has given misery? Night and day in whose expectation, Steadfastly, you remain vigilant... On tears float the love-spores That crave no more Whose proximity? What you hear or listen to under daylight, Dreams You weave at dark of night... Which ignis fatuus do you draw nigh; What is your austerity?   Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Finally I see

(3614) Tomar e gan anadikaler

This Your song from ancient times, With the endless it unites. In tune and beat on vast blue sky, Onward it glides. No one knows when the start; Even held, it stays uncaught. Coming and going within heart, Finish in the Infinite abides. You exist in Your anthem; In the universe, sway You've wakened. You dance in whole-hearted cadence, Most Sweet Lord, with rapt mind.  Sarkarverse article Audio recording

And yet I don't

(3613) Tar namer madhu mane mekhe rai

His name's sweetness, upon mind I stay coating; Upon mind I stay coating. He is my morning's sun, Hope and confidence of a night dense. Him I can forget nowhere! In dawn's light is just His smile; Inside the mind He plays on bamboo pipe. With hue of bloom getting combined– He keeps doing that only; hence my plight is risky. Like this, He goes and comes; He floats invisibly in such fashion. He rids gloom through look sidelong; I take His acquaintance, not having seen.  Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Because You arrived

(3612) Arup tomar ruper parashe

Formless Lord, by the touch of Your form, To a dark world light has come. By that light, sides are brightened; Earth bewitched has woken up. You've brought to earthly realm the splendor of Heaven; With a goose's[1] tune, melody You've blended. A song of the Infinite, You've sung to one who's limited; By that means, direction and prospect have run amok. What had been veiled by darkness, Neath the rays of daybreak, eyes did spread. Smiled the act of viewing, that seen, and witness; With a thrill, the visible universe, dance it does. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I become devout

(3611) Tomar katha bheve bheve, divanishi ashru jhare

About You ever thinking, Day and night exude tears. Far away You stayed, Darling, This my house, made gloomy. By the pitch-black magic of a rainy night, To get You close, the mind desires... Alas, like stamen of screwpine, Upon gloom, hope goes sailing. On the fragrance of Autumn shephalii, A raft of white cloud is floating... You came not into proximity; Vainly I dress up, flowers replete. With the tender dawn of my Springtime, By fresh green leaf, a colored sky... Searching for where You be, I run dry, Hell and heavens ever rambling. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Total submission

(3610) Ami gan geye jai

A song I go on singing. No wealth is mine, no strength of piety; And thus I pray for mercy. Throat You've given me, myself You gave ardor; You've given a life full of honeyed impulse. I proclaim capitulation by a hundred means. Just foot-dust am I, I'm Your molecule; Seated in cognition's Gokul, You play on a bamboo flute. That same sound of reed pipe, I hear at heart's core; By pull of the Infinite, boundary I defeat. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Could it be?

(3609) Anek vedana diye anek ankhi jhariye

By means of immense agony, too much having wept, My Hardhearted Lord, You have come. What You want, that too, I don't know; What You speak, I don't fathom that also. I but know, just understand: Myself have You loved. I know not if greatly remote You dwell; Is that why pain does not penetrate ear's tunnel? Or maybe deliberately, You pretend to be deaf; Else, You don't wish to let know what You've thought. You paint a portrait of Your divine sport; Mayhap unawares You sketch, You stay deep in thought. To start-middle-finish You pay no attention; At length and irrespective, smiling, on You've gone. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I seek an unearned grace

(3608) Bhuloke dyuloke eki mayay

On Earth and in Heaven with amazing magic, You made dance to melody and cadence, Lord. Each and every instant flashes splendor; From Creator to blade of grass You infused affection. Every moment there is such a flow thrilling; Ever flashing, it comes with a glow, all-pervading. In thought and contemplation is auspicious gleam; Through pollen, You scattered impact of love. Hey my Deity, that You not ignore my story, I have no biography or any effort holy. Strength of virtue or awareness, know it isn't there; But even then, grace does a waiting mind implore. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I think of You only

(3607) Tomakei smaran kari

I remember only Thee; To You alone in thinking I cling. Why don't You arrive adjacent, Oh my ruthless Lord Supreme? My days come and vanish, Rotating in vain upon an axle. Absent You, survival is at risk; A pitcher I infuse with venom deadly. Day's lustrous rays and magic of moonlight; A floral garden and a cooling shadow mild... Lose worth all things of mine; Yourself alongside, no equal is there. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I was blind

(3606) Andhakarer antarete

At gloomy dark's inside, With light-stream You arrived. I didn't recognize, I could not know To me You were so kind. Ever gazing at the path, a bloom fell; Always singing, the bird slept. I knew not, I could not follow Where You hid and why. Eyes opened, I took note; What's this: Near and far, it's You alone. By moonlight, such ambrosia, the desert To the lees You did provide. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

What's the deal anyway?

(3605) Pathapane ceye ceye

Ever looking toward the path, So many nights disappear. It came not on those nights sweet: Came not that southern breeze. My pain do You not realize, And is that why You're hiding eyes, Yourself keeping far aside... Me alone and left behind, In this rainstorm most severe? Have You forgot I am a molecule, My body by Your thought resolute, I, a firefly; the sun, You... Yet still You play a bamboo flute, Having kept far away at this time unpromising? Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Life in exile is too harsh a game

(3604) Ekti katha shudhu ekti katha

A single point, just one matter, From You I inquire, Hey the Cosmic Lord, adamantly. To this same earth why bring the living beings Just to give them misery? Having come to the world creatures laugh and weep; Sometimes neath moonlight, sometimes under comets falling. Easily, with dust they go and unite... Below a disinterested glance oblique. Why play a game, this liila heartless– At times cast adrift in grief, at times fill with happiness. Sometimes You come imminent, sometimes far off take Yourself... Between light and darkness, never discriminating. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Delusion

(3603) Prabhu tumi eso mor manane baso

Lord, You please come, sit within my cogitation; In meditation Yourself have I yearned to receive. Taking just Your name, rowing o'er just Your flow, I've gone on doing just Your deeds. Unseen and unblemished, You are cherished– By both mind and heart, worthy to be worshiped. My own soul's closest kin, On just Your implication I've stayed replete. Life comes and goes, resembling a rainbow; So many things that glow, they all swoon in a mo'. The sweet and mild breeze, the pleasant shadow– By a dance amid You only I have gone crazy. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

It's a new day

(3602) Nandanacandanasar hate

From the pith of sandalwood delicious, Arrived has this emission of ambrosia. Rapidly through a rhythmic dance and song, The message of new life it has brought. What did not happen in days past at any time, That came floating with a heavenly delight. Into the human mind, silently and in private, It has let be poured the wares of love. Who- and wherever you be, hear words of mine: Color's chronicle has been inscribed! To this Truth Supreme, with everyone along, All of you come running; the morn it has become. Sarkarverse article Currently, no audio file is available.

Totally mind-boggling

(3601) Arup ratan prabhu mor

The Formless Gem, Master mine, You are heart-and-soul pleasing. I did not fathom You, Who You be I knew not well; I know only that You be virtue's dwelling. In a non-stop liila where everything goes adrift, A molecule's minuteness loses self in some Infinite. Mid both unit and collective, in cognition-garbs one hundred, Form's beauty You compose incessantly. Through a dance in cadence and beat, cognition moves ahead; In a string of waves with lustrous girdle does it swell. What You go on thinking, who else will understand, tell me do; Ten million salutations at Your lotus feet! Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Such a divine mercy

(3600) Srstidhara dhay tomari karunay

Creation's flow races after just Your kindness; In design of liila, You are unique. Grazing unseen, frolicking in mind, Vanquishing all grief, hey Darling Supreme. The links between You and me are many, Lord, Though I am a particle, and You're the Creator. By just Your vibration, through sandal delectable, My atoms and molecules rise up dancing. With You I don't have a difference; You exist, and I remain alive hence. If You were not staying, I too would be in peril; I was floating in some huge vacuity. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Lord and Master

(3599) Ei susmita prabhate

Upon this same sweetly smiling morn, With light along, You had come in my direction. You brought life, You filled the world; You removed gloom through many songs. Light went on racing, piercing the dark, Pervading new life's horizon. With psychic vibration like a paradise of kadam, Whispered into every ear the tale was. Affection's agent, You are the most Beloved; In a myriad of ways You exterminate inky darkness. Through a series of waves, by a girdle of gems, My vanity You enveloped. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

I become wise

(3598) Andhara rate tava alokasrote

By Your flow of effulgence on the dark night, Goes on playing such a kindly lyre. Psyche races to a remote paradise in the sky– Every moment, an attraction so sublime! It does not abide friend or foe, far or nigh; How and why it does so, this mind of mine? It keeps floating to a shore speech-outside– With thought surges heart, tender and mild. Past the sea of form, on a form-free coastline, Around the feet of God are belled anklets of light. Tears streaming, contemplation dances out of delight– It faints in course of time, beyond time, and aforetime. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

It's just You I want to see

On only Your alms, on only Your song, My life goes on floating. In just Your meditation, in just Your direction, I remain looking, both morning and evening. Unseen and unblemished, You are beloved; Ridding mortal fears, You are fit to be worshiped. Matchless in beauty, virtue, and manner, Atom and molecule dance at Your feet. Except You, in this same world there is not another one; Situated within You are generation-operation-destruction. With everyone, individually and collectively, You are along; Your splendor coruscates in the thoughts of everybody. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

All it takes is love

The Song-King, lays You went on scattering At my world's every cranny. You imbued best jewel-rays of my psyche With a transcendental throbbing. On the earth, Lord, You have no comparison; Yet I wander in search, both in and out of doors. I don't fathom: You're in mind, somewhere deep. Come with dance and song, in my life do appear; Keeping balance, You make rhythmic melody. To my fixated reverie You concede. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

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

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?

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

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

Imperceptibly

(3588) Thakibe na jadi priya

If You will not stay, Beloved, Why did You arrive, mind enticing? In my psyche pain-impaired, To bestir despondency? With mist had I been filled, Ringed by a self-created girth. Bereft of speech, inertia's letters, Ruined was the thread of my blossoming. It is Yourself that I prize; At just Your name, I weep, I smile. Dawn's full moon,[1] night's heap of moonlight, You infuse with ideation from a place unseen. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Why defy Your nature?

(3587) Bhalor ceyeo tumi bhalo

Still more than excellent, You are fine; Even so You've stayed remote, why? You alone are the gloomy heart's light; Why have You bestowed a new-moon night? My One desired from so many ages Floral thread of a hundred smiling gardens... Many eyes, their tears of bliss... Why are You hidden, mist thereby? Even more than honey are You sweet: A homeland in the seven spheres. So down to ground I bow before Thee; Why are You not giving reply? Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Adrift

Smiling, in the mind please come, The mental Gopal mine. Awake I am staying for Your sake; Falls the stream from my eyes. For ages having watched the path, Many a lifetime has elapsed, vigilant. But You did not arrive, took not a garland; You did not understand non-stop desire. Psyche's Jamuna remains not seated; Upstream does it run at times, or else it ebbs. Within Your midst it craves residence; Yourself it seeks time after time. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

When stars sing

Today singing a song go on the stars; Paying heed, I begin hearing. On thought a star pours stream ambrosial; My heart is upsurging. From land to land floats a song, Into all consciousness, in every heart. Enveloping the mote of dust, molecule, and atom, Psyche's door is opening. Through the octave inside music-methods, Song gives sway on heaven's vault. Range of vision having reached, by pulse it drives amok; Periphery's block it is ignoring. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Making the leap of faith

(3584) Niilakashe oi balaka

On azure sky yon flight of geese, Having rose, it goes to which unknown place? Chasing that, mind races, solitary; Where's the nest, no sight does it obtain. In light and darkness it's concealed– This cozy abode, always ideation-smeared. Under the tow of love flutter wings; They find the right address, having chased. After spreading wings of action and knowledge, They go to devotion's target. Contemplating that, all else forgotten, He concedes, the Formless One in divine play. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Scripture and intellect, logic, reason, and analysis– Above all them, You are invisible and unblemished. The mirage of blind attachment You can rescind. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

A play of affection

(3579) Ganer e jharnadharay

Through this font of song You have gone on dancing. At inertia's gloomy prison You've ignited light-beams. When there'd been no atom or molecule in existence, When by deadly sleep, agency was indolent, There'd not been bright smiles or any flute at fest; You have simply laughed, solitary. Today in sportive flavor, with the throng on You glide; On the heart of multitudes, honey You apply. To many a dance beat You excite with silvery light, When You have loved everybody.

There had been a honeyed pollen in the lotus of my psyche; Affection had been replete in a trance of odor sweet. Tune, tempo, music mode... in cadence to and fro they swing; For whose sake, that who does comprehend? To the form-sea came this lotus with what project; Master, that You know, all takes place in Your depths. The ocean of wisdom deep, mind-waters of perfect knowledge, Pearl You load at the heart of oyster-shell. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Sparkling with the luster of Your silhouette, Both micro- and macrocosm; they're be-gemmed. The nebula's necklace in ways one hundred, By Your legs, overwhelmed. Sarkarverse article Audio recording

Resonant in the three worlds[2] with God's vibration, By such means dumbfounded is all garrulous speech. Sarkarverse article Audio recording
