71. Tumi nahi basa bhalo
Tumi nahi baso bhaloE hiyar ghor kalo
Ami durbal ami chanchal
Nahi phute prane asha shatadal
Dhalo kripa sudha dhalo
Asimer khudha jalo
You do not love
The dun darkness of my heart.
I am weak,
I am helpless,
I am restless.
Hope-lotus does not blossom
Inside my heart.
O Lord, grant me
Your infinite Compassion-Delight.
Grant me the joy
Of infinite hunger.
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 2, Agni Press, New York, 1976
