not yet fully in banaprastha.
but the shadow comes often
The day is not very far
So trying to acclimatize to the thought
thanks for the comment.

How is this one?

THE TWILIGHT SONG

 

At the dawn of my life

Those who brought music to my mind

One by one they are fading

Behind the evening shadows.

Along the way

Many are coming and going

I am sitting all alone by its side.

Those who have left

Are coming back and crowding

At the door of my dreams

My past pains

Are seeking in their single strings

The tunes they lost long ago.

Hours pass after hours

I am counting the silent sounds of the beads

The gathering darkness is telling.

Transcreation of the love song – Jara bihan-belay gan enechhilo – composed by Rabindranath Tagore on 3rd November, 1940, a few months before his death.
