jakhan chhilam bose sagarer pare
bhabtam bhed nei jale o akashe,
dikchakrabale tara sada sannihito.
temni tumio chhile kalpanay pashe.
bar-jale bhese giye sabhyata-nabik
por kheye bujhe gechhe digbalay adharai thake,.
akashe o jale bhed dustar. jatha
dwidhahin pratyakhyan korechho amake.
Daydream
When I was seated at the shore
I thought there was no seperation between the water and the sky,
They always unify at the horizon.
In the same way you too were there beside me in imagination.
The sailor of civilisation, after being far out there in the sea,
Has gained experience and understood that the horizon can not be reached,
The difference between the water and the sky is unbridgable, in the same way as
You have refused me without slightest hesitation.
