37. Kena dhare rakha britha ankhi jale

```

Kena dhare rakha britha ankhi jale

Rahibena kena sabe jabe chale

Dekona rekhona dhare chhale bale

Jete dao hasi mukhe

Bale dao theko sukhe

Phutibe jiban alo phule phale

```

```

Why do we retain tears in our eyes

When we know that one by one

All will leave us?

Do not call, do not hold.

Let everyone go in his own way

Whenever he wants to.

At the parting time, just say:

“Be happy.

Remain happy.

Let happiness-flower

Grow in your heart-garden.”

```
