Poem No: 35. How Shall I Gladden You? O My Dearest! Poem by Dipankar Sadhukhan

How shall I gladden you? o my dearest!
Like a tiger Time will claw my asset.
One night when I met you for the first time,
Love for you was born in my heart and mind.

Now I'm full of life and vitality.
Once I'll grow old by Time's activity.
He shall try to steal my strength and power
But e'en in the storm my mind won't alter.

Time shall take away your beauty and hue.
He'll spoil your rosy lips and weaken you.
But if your mind remains same like this earth,
Your Love for me shall grow in mind and heart.

The icy hands of Death shall touch us ne'er
As our Love will make us youth forever.
