I'm a self-absorbed Bengali-Torontonian;
Fish comes to me raw, wrappend in seaweed, not cooked in curry;
I love watching thunderstorms and rain;
Sad endings make more sense to me than happy ones;
I hate empty walls.

    The Song


    Finally I found the English translation of one of my favourite Tagore poems.

    THE SONG THAT I CAME TO SING

    The song that I came to sing remains unsung to this day.
    I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument.
    The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only
    there is the agony of wishing in my heart.
    The blossom has not opened; only the wind is sighing by.
    I have not seen his face, nor have I listened to his voice; only I have
    heard his gentle footsteps from the road before my house.
    The livelong day has passed in spreading his seat on the floor; but the
    lamp has not been lit and I cannot ask him into my house.
    I live in the hope of meeting with him; but this meeting is not yet.

    Tr. Rabindranath Tagore
