My Song

Rabindranath Tagore 

 
This song of mine will wind its music around you,
my child, like the fond arms of love.

The song of mine will touch your forehead
like a kiss of blessing.

When you are alone it will sit by your side and 
whisper in your ear, when you are in the crowd
it will fence you about with aloofness.

My song will be like a pair of wings to your dreams,
it will transport your heart to the verge of the unknown.

It will be like the faithful star overhead
               when dark night is over your road.

    My song will sit in the pupils of your eyes,
and will carry your sight into the heart of things.

    And when my voice is silenced in death,
    my song will speak in your living heart.
   
From "Stray Birds"
I
Stray birds of summer come to my 
   window to sing and fly away. 
And yellow leaves of autumn, which 
   have no songs, flutter and fall

   there with a sigh. 

II

O Troupe of little vagrants of the 

   world, leave your footprints in 

   my words.
