Tamasi nishai ankhi dube jai
Chapal praner kato bedanaiAr nai asha bani
Britha manaber akuti bhakatiChira jagrata jage abanati
Alik swapan muktir abhilashAnanda ucchas
Phire chai pran phire chai arbarTimir dainya jatanar manihar
``````
My eyes sink in darkness-night.My restless life suffers excruciating pangs.
There is no more hope-message.It is all in vain
That human beings cry.It is all in vain
That human devotion triesTo reach some height.
Failure is reigning supreme.Again and again, I wish to become
The flood of delight.How I wish to receive once more the sea of delight,
To put an end to my heart’s excruciating pangs. ```From:Sri Chinmoy,Pole-star promise-light, part 3, Agni Press, 1977
