In my parting words

যাবার দিনে এই কথাটি
Jabar dine ei kothati bole jeno jai (audio: Debabrata Biswas)

(Tagore's own translation)


With my last words let me sing
how wonderful was everything
all I received and all I've seen.

Let me say, I touched a heart
the sacred lotus in a sea of light
Let me say, I am blessed
my breath felt like delight.

In this playhouse I played so hard
I found wonders beyond the mark.
Let me say, that I touched
endlessness within me.
And if it has to end here now
so be it, let it be.
