This song of mine will wind itself around you;
the soul caressing words;
the melodies of love.
They will wrap about you;
like the fond arms of love.

This song of mine will touch upon your cheek l
like a kiss of blessing;
a gentle brush of kindness grazing across your face.
When you are alone let it whisper in your ear,
let it dance on your heart,
let it soak into the deepness of your soul.

This song will be like the faithful star overhead
when darkness fills the pathway at your feet.
\My song will drown itself in the deep blue pools that are your eyes,
and will carry your sight into the heart of things.
When you are alone let it whisper in your ear,
let it dance upon your heart,
let it soak into the deepness of your soul.

Rabindranath Tagore
