With what doubt had you left?

মনে কী দ্বিধা রেখে গেলে চলে 
Mone ki didha rekhe gele chole

With what doubt had you left?
In mellow twilight the other day,
On your way, what had you wondered
And turned your face to say?
What had played on your mind?
Had it been a smile 
That gleamed in your eyes? --
I muse with a troubled heart,
Now that you are in a world far away.
A flight of herons in the sky,
Soar by, like an image of my tears
To you, I would like to ask

What was it you never revealed
When you left?
Was the secret saved
In the sorrowful scent of the jasmine?
