A playhouse I build

খেলাঘর বাঁধতে লেগেছি
khelaghor bandhte legechhi (audio)

A playhouse I build
Within my own heart
Many a long night
Thus awake I stay

The traveller at dawn
Beckons me outside
I cannot spare the time
Tell me, how can I join
That game of the outdoor

That which is mine
It lies strewn in shambles
Ignored by one and all
Wreckage of days bygone
I build my house with it

This throne I make for one
Who is my new playmate
He will make whole the broken
With a few magic words
