That which we get unasked

না চাহিলে যারে পাওয়া যায়

na chahile jare pawa jay

That which we get unasked

That which rejected, still comes back

That wealth I lost in daylight

To find it in the darkness of night

The one beyond sight
The one beyond touch

Surrender your life to that one

And awaken!

The stars above echo that voice

It blooms in flowers of the morning

Many a tear I shed for it

On the lotus seat of learning*

They ripple and brim over the lotus petals

In many a song of mine

In each and every moment

It shines and dazzles in flashes

In kindly light of a calm smile

I see it glimmer and glow

*The Hindu Goddess of Learning Saraswati is visualized as sitting on a lotus
