Dhora Diyechi Go #54/ 294

Tagore’s lyrics of Dhora Diyechi Go (I Have Yielded) have been translated from Bengali by Professor Dr. Fakrul Alam

Though a bird of the sky, I’m yielding myself up,

Having seen in your eyes a new heaven.

What could you be hiding between your eyelids?

When you smile, what blooms there is so heavenly!

My heart would like to fly there all on its own

And live in the realm of such starry eyes

What could it be calling out to me for?

Why does it want me to be in that heavenly realm?

All I know is this—I want to lose myself there fully

Singing songs about those eyes full-heartedly, blissfully!
