11. You beckon me
Asha diye kache dakoHatash kare dure rakho
Amai diye chaoar khudha
Rakho dure param sudha
You beckon me with Your Hope-Message.
Again, it is You who keep me
Away from You with despondent
And broken heart.
You have given me the hunger
    Of desire.
Again, it is You who keep away from me
Immortality’s Nectar Supreme.
Sri Chinmoy, I Know Not Why, Agni Press, New York, 1980
