Tagore Song (#72) How Do Thou Sing Thy Songs Poem by Tushar Ray

(tumi kemonkore gan korohe guni)

Oh Lord, Master of all Talents
How do Thou sing Thy Songs?
I listen in awe, and only listen
Melodic sparks cover the cosmos
Musical winds flow across the sky
Light of Music engulf entire ether
Keenly rushing thru tunneling stones!

I wish I could sing the same way
But can’t find tune in my vocal chord
I wish to sing, but facing obstacle
My defeated soul starts crying
What a barrier Thou indeed created
By enclosing me with Thy songs!
