Gitanjali by Rabindra Nath Tagore translated by Tagore himself from Bengali.

Serial Number of the song : 23


Art thou abroad on this stormy night on thy
journey of love, my friend ?
The sky groans like one in despair.
I have no sleep to-night.
Ever and again I open my door
and look out on the darkness, my friend !
I can see nothing before me. I wonder
where lies thy path !
By what dim shore of the ink-black river,
by what far edge of the frowning forest,
through what mazy depth of gloom art thou
threading thy course to come to me, my friend ?
