Selected Fireflies by Rabindranath Tagor
I touch God in my song
as the hill touches the far-away sea
with its waterfall.
~
The butterfly counts not months but moments,
and has time enough.
~
Let my love, like sunlight, surround you
and give you illumined freedom.
~
Love remains a secret even when spoken,
for only a lover truly knows that he is loved.
~
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil
is no freedom for the tree.
~
In love I pay my endless debt to thee
for what thou art.
– Rabindranath Tagore
