I need your grace

দয়া দিয়ে হবে গো মো জীবন ধুতে
Doya diye hobe go mor jeebon dhute (audio: Sandhya Mukherjee)

I need your grace to clean my path.
How else can I softly surrender?

I was bringing flowers for your altar,
when my darkness was revealed to me
and I failed to offer my heart.


I didn't realize I was smothered in dirt

till now, there was no shame.

Suddenly pain 
gnawed at my heart
suddenly I craved light
a child's hunger for mother's
 love.
Please do not leave me to lie in the dust
ever again.
