Amidst dense darkness of words unspoken

আমার  না-বলা বাণীর ঘন যামিনীর মাঝে

Amidst the dense darkness
Of words unspoken
My thoughts of you shine like stars.

Around the shadowy forests
In the seclusion of my heart
Floats the fragrance of flowers unseen
My feelings hide in unwept tears
A flute unheard, plays deep within.

Now and then unknowing
I make a gift of my song
My life I adorn with flowers
In course of play
Knowing not when you might choose one

In the dimness of light
You open the door in silence
And breathe new life into my work
