A long parted melody returns to me

অনেক দিনের আমার যে গান 
Awnek diner amar je gaan (audio: Debabrata Biswas)

A long parted melody returns to me,
I ask her of her dwelling,
Of the sky where she takes flight.

I ask her how she smells
Of a bloom I thought
Had wilted long ago.
How she lilts of a soul
I had lost my hopes on.

I ask her how she harbors
The utterly homeless
Through her music.
How she fosters a parlance
With the love
For whom I yearn every moment.

While my tears are depleted
How could she echo my sobs,
Through her melody
How could she transport my past
To the present
Setting my aching desires 
Afloat the blue sky!
