ওগো মৌন না যদি কও
ogo mouno na jodi kau
(Tagore's own translation)
O Silent One
So be it if you do not speak
I’ll fill my heart with Your silence
Quiet as the night I will sit still
Alight stars that shine on and on
Bowing down in humble patience
Wavering not for a moment
Arrive will dawn it surely will
Deep darkness of night disappear
Your message it is I will see
Streaking the sky in streams of gold
Will it then the birds in my nest
Burst in a song strung with Your words
To Your tune buds come into bloom
On leafy vines in my garden
ogo mouno na jodi kau
(Tagore's own translation)
O Silent One
So be it if you do not speak
I’ll fill my heart with Your silence
Quiet as the night I will sit still
Alight stars that shine on and on
Bowing down in humble patience
Wavering not for a moment
Arrive will dawn it surely will
Deep darkness of night disappear
Your message it is I will see
Streaking the sky in streams of gold
Will it then the birds in my nest
Burst in a song strung with Your words
To Your tune buds come into bloom
On leafy vines in my garden
