Tagore Song (209) Song Came To My Mind Last Night When You Were Not With Me Poem by Tushar Ray

(kal rater bela gan elo mor mone)


The song looked in my mind last night
When you were not with me
Word I had been waiting to talk alone
Spending my life in silent tears
That word lit-up my tune as Homa-fire
In the dark moments-
Then you were not with me

Then thought today morning
I will leave saying that word
Unmindful-scents of flowers around
The sky becoming full with bird songs:
That-kind tune didn’t offer that word
Whatever effort I gave with my soul
When you had been with me
