Amar Swapan Tomai Diye
Amar swapan tomai diyeEbar habo shanto
Satya katha balchi mago
Ebar ami klanto
Bastabata jachi mago
Jago amar prane jago
Ar katokal raibo mago
Swapan niye mane
Satya shikha jwalao mago
Amar hriday bane
I shall now offer You my dream-world
And then become totally silent.
I am telling You frankly
That I am completely exhausted.
What I want from You is reality-light
And not a dream-world.
How long have I to keep the dream-world
In my mind?
Reality’s truth-world do awaken
Inside the forest of my heart.
Sri Chinmoy, Pole-star promise-light, part 3, Agni Press, 1977
