- - Had I Been Thy Harp- - Poem by Prabir Gayen

___Had I been Thy harp ___

Had I been able to go beyond this!
The body rotten in every alcove,
The vein is broken and heart torn apart,

Had I been to able say bye to all!
Life is no more with me and I am waned.
Every breath I take is heavy and sore.

Had I been able to forget all I dreamt!
Life has become a graveyard without corpse!
Life is a beautiful song without rhyme.

Had I been able to stop pulsation!
Every moment the heart bear with no cause,
The mind argue with no just solution.

Had I been able to die every moment,
Life would have kissed me and dot me with care,
Let me sleep with no knowledge of passion.

Had I been a rootless night to nurture,
The tired souls that travel the weary world,
To refresh them again to fight the world.

Had I been a witness away from turmoil,
The glorious ignorance of feast of life.
With deep awareness would drink the bane of life.

Had I been the lovely day to make thee,
The salt of the earth the luminous being,
To sitwith heart beside theLazarus.

Had I been the way of the world and end,
With loveless affection touch the vast sky,
On green grass would have slept with joy wordless.

Had I been the worthy of Thy pure Love,
With music in heart I would sing Thy song,
Praising the glory of the spiritual.
