Kata Kichu Chahi Kabhu Nahi Pai

```

Kata kichu chahi kabhu nahi pai

Tabu ami cheye jai

Dibanishi ami andharer buke

Khunji mago mor thai

Mor basanar nahi habe shesh

Nehari amai tumi pao klesh

Ki karibo balo akuti je nai

Tomare tyajiya basanare je chai

Amrita niye dako dibanishi

Basanare nai khunje dashadishi

Amar andhar chapal paran

Shanti kothao nai

Kato kichu chahi kabhu nahi pai

Tabu ami cheye jai

```

```

I desire many, many things.

I get nothing,

Yet I go on asking for my desires.

There will be no end to them;

My desires will remain deathless.

Forever I look for my own existence-reality

Inside the heart of darkness.

I know why all this happens.

It happens because I have no aspiration-light.

Alas, I want you not,

He whom I want is the professor of desires.

You bring me nectar and call me.

Alas, what I do is look for my desire-life

Here, there, everywhere; within and without.

My restless vital I am.

There is no peace of mind within me.

But there is something which is very strange:

I still long for you,

And you alone. ```
