Tagore Song (#33) Being Wrapped In Dusts Of Thy Feet Poem by Tushar Ray

(Oie matir tole ason pore lutiye robo)


I want to stay on the dusty ground
Under Thy seat-cover
Covering me with the dusts of Thy feet

Why do Thou keep me at a distance!
Treating me as dignified all lifelong!
Please don't trick me like that, Oh Lord
Please drag me down with dishonors
In the dirt of Thy feet making me dirty
Please give me a seat below everyone

Numerous people come here for Thy grace
Not asking any I just want to look at Thee
And take whatever will be left in the end
Staying under the covered dust of Thy feet
