Rabindranath Tagore Jayanti 2023: Poems of a Bengali Poet
first.
Wait. The song I came to sing to this day has not been sung yet. I spent all day tuning and unstringing my instrument.
Time does not come, words are not right; There is only the suffering of lust in my heart…
I didn’t see his face, didn’t hear his voice, only heard his light footsteps from the street in front of the house…
But the lamp was not lit, and I could not invite him into my house; I live with the hope of meeting him; but not this meeting.
2. Gitanjali You have made me endless, it’s your pleasure. You empty this fragile container again and again and always fill it with fresh life.
You carried this little reed flute through the hills and valleys and blew eternal new tunes through it.
At the eternal touch of your hand, my little heart lost its ecstasy and gave birth to an indescribable expression.
Your endless gifts only come to me in these very small hands of mine. Centuries go by and you still pour, and there is still room to fill.
3. About the nature of love The dark forest night has no beginning and no end; Millions of people use it in a million ways. We try to be in the dark, but where or with whom – we are not aware of it. But we have this belief – that the happiness of life will appear every minute, with a smile on our faces. The smell, the touch, the sound, the parts of the song move us, pass us by, give us great shocks. Then by chance a lightning bolt: met someone at that moment I fell in love. I called that person and cried: “Blessed is this life! I have traveled many kilometers for you!’ All the others come closer and farther from the darkness – I don’t know if they even exist.
4. Paper boats Every day I let my paper boats go down the water. I write my name and the name of the village where I live in big black letters. I hope that someone in a foreign country will find them and know who I am. I loaded the boat with shiuli flowers from our garden and hoped that these dawn flowers would be safely delivered to the mainland during the night.
5. Where the mind is fearless Where the mind is fearless and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world is not fragmented Along the narrow walls of the house Where words emerge from the depths of truth Where tireless effort stretches out its arms toward perfection Where the clear stream of reason does not go astray Into the dreary desert sands of dead habits Where you guide your mind forward before.
