O Lord of mine, O ruthless One

ওগো দেবতা আমার, পাষাণদেবতা
ogo debota amar pashandebota

O Lord of mine, O ruthless One
You who dwell in my heart
Lord of the temple within
I have offered all my flowers at your feet.
My morning fades into twilight
My sightless eyes grope in the dark.
Will my worship be all in vain
Will this servant retreat in tears?
I have brought as offering this time
All the desires of my life.
Seeing the darkness I have lit
A lamp for my worship.
So be it if the light flickers out
I will stay put at the door
Offering my tears at your service.
