sabar sathe choltechile - At the Break of Light

On a trail unknown, he walked with us over the night

I saw him only at the break of light.

At once the night turned into dawn,

He was my treasure all life long,

A friend who never ceased to be known -

Like a known blossoming flower by strange forest-side

On the way at the break of light.

Midway, by the evening again I know -

That darkness will cover and I will see him no more.

I shall feel every moment what I had by then known;

Day or night, the journey life long, that together we walk along -

At my heart for all I miss him, stands out that tryst of delight

On the way at the break of light.
