যাত্রাভঙ্গ, নির্মলেন্দু গুণ / Disruptions, Nirmalendu Goon



I don't need to touch you with my hands
I can feel you with my mind,
I don't mix two things to make it one;
I take one and make it two.
I do not lie on a bed of gold
when I have a bed made for love.
How will you go there?
Take a step into the shadows of my feet
There you might find me.

If you still insist on going
You will see there is no path to follow.
Then I will touch you a little
I will put my arms around you
You will say farewell to walking,
And climb into my boat
My boat that will help you cross the river so deep.

I will sit on the boat too
And pay you with my 'Nay's;
No need to touch your face with my hand again
I will touch it with my pain.

How will you go there?
