Tagore Song (#30) I Will Start My Daily Duties Poem by Tushar Ray

(Aji pronomi omare cholibo natho)


I will attend my daily callings
After prostrating at Thy feet, Oh Lord
Please keep Thy gentle eyes
Gazing at mine deep in my heart

Oh Lord, let my mind be alert
That Thou Art sitting firm in my heart
So bad thoughts ahead of me
Will perish in time in awful shame

I want to listen to Thy eternal song
All day long in noisy gathering
Please make Thy song audible to me
While attending my daily callings

Let Thy joy Radiate out
From my mind, body, soul and eyes
In all-direction at every instant
During the delineation of my duties
