(My Golden
Bengal)
My
Bengal of gold, I love you Forever
your skies, your air set my heart in
tune as if it were a flute, In
Spring, Oh mother mine, the fragrance
from your mango-groves makes me wild
with joy- Ah, what a thrill!
In Autumn, Oh mother mine, in the full-blossomed paddy fields,
I
have seen spread all over - sweet smiles! Ah, what
a beauty, what shades, what an
affection and what a
tenderness! What a quilt have
you spread at the feet of
banyan trees and along the banks of
rivers! Oh mother mine, words
from your lips are like Nectar
to my ears! Ah, what a
thrill! If sadness, Oh mother
mine, casts a gloom on your
face, my eyes are filled with tears! |
