[recycledsoul]

Namaste Everyone

I am not sure if this is the right forum, forgive me if it is not

I am looking for Rabindranath Tagores "Akhari Kavita" ("The Last Poem").

It is a beautiful story, but i can not find it anywhere

If anyone knows or has a copy, I am Grateful to know about where to obtain it

OM Shanti

Tomar srishthir path rekhechho aakirno kari

Bichitra chhalanajale,

Hey chhalanamoee.

Mithya biswaser pha(n)d petechho nipun ha-te

Saral jiba-ne.

A-e prabanchana di-a mahattwe-re karechho chinhito;

Tar ta-re rakho ni gopan ratri.

Tomar jyotisko ta-re

Je-path dekhai

Se je tar antarer path,

Se je chiro-swa-cha-chha,

Sahaj biswase se je

Kare ta-re chiro-samujjal.

Bahi-re kutil hok anto-re se riju,

A-e ni-a tahar gourab.

Lo-ke ta-re ba-le birambito.

Satya-re se pai

Aapan aalo-ke dhouto anto-re anto-re.

Kichhu-te pa-re na ta-re prabanchi-te,

Shes puraskar ni-a jai se je

Aapan bhanda-re.

Ana-aase je perechhe chhalana sohi-te

Se pai tomar ha-te

Shantir ak-khoy adhikar.

 

 

 

 

aakhri baar choonay do.

zindgi jo mujhay aakhri baar deti hai

mujhay lainay do

mujhay aakhri asheerwaad do

aaj mera thela sub khaali hai

jo kuch main nay dena thaa

vo sub de deeya hai

badlay main mujhay jo millay ga -

kuch pyaar, kuch maufi -

vo main apnay saath lay challonga

jab us kishti pe paaon rakhoonga

jo lay challaygi mujhay

sub lafzon ke melaay k paar.

tr. Ravi Kopra

from the following poem translated into English from Bengali. Tagore dictated this poem from his death bed.

Last Poems 10

I'm lost in the middle of my birthday.

I want my friends,

their touch,

with the earth's last love.

I will take life's final offering,

I will take the human's last blessing.

Today my sack is empty.

I have given completely

whatever I had to give.

In return if I recieve anything -

some love, some forgiveness-

then I will take it with me

when I step on the boat that crosses

to the festival of the wordless end.

-Rabindra Nath Tagore

 

 

Have fun !!
