क ् ल ै ब ् य ं म ा स ् म ग म
प ा र ् थ न ै त त ् त ् व य ् य ु प प द ् य त े

do not yield to unmanliness
O son of Pritha
it does not become you
shake off this base faint-heartnedness and arise
O scorcher of enemies!

who is shining smile
bestower of all happiness
whose heart is full of mercy
whose strength is ready
to save any soul from danger

who is decorated by various gems
with harmonious praises
wih melodious hymns
in a dream you came
and I knew you are special

you are the inspiration
you are the rainbow
you are the moon
you are the sun
you are the air

I need you, now, always, and forever
who's always our eyes, our ears
our hope, our spirit, our family
when it is thunderstorm
you are my lighthouse

it is the blood of brotherhood
it is the rope of sisterhood
embrace the precious
it is the tenderness
it is the love inside

like a universe vision of light
like a divine embroidery
through the river of life
in purest and noblest
nature song ascends

let me carry you in my heart
let me carry you in my mind
let me carry you in my soul
let me carry you in my love
may be the closest one

Its sadi that - “The happiness of life is made up of a smile, a kind look, a heart-felt compliment, and the countless infinitesimals of pleasurable and genial feeling” The same got reflected here. Good read. Thank you.
