Tumi Nahi Baso Bhalo
Tumi nahi baso bhalo
E hiyar ghor kalo
Ami durbal ami chanchal
Nahi phute prane asha shatadal
Dhalo kripa sudha dhalo
Asimer khudha jwalo
Translation
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, 1978
