SRI AUROBINDO |

Hymn to Durga |
|
|
BIDYAPATI (XIV-XV cent.) |
|
Childhood and youth each other are nearing... |
1898-1900 |
Day by day her milk-breasts drew splendour... |
1898-1900 |
Now and again a sidelong look... |
1898-1900 |
Childhood and youth, maiden, are met... |
1898-1900 |
Playing she plays not, so newly shy... |
1898-1900 |
In elder's eyes' she brooks not stay... |
1898-1900 |
A little and a little now... |
1898-1900 |
Childhood is fled and youth in its seat... |
1898-1900 |
Ah how shall I her lovely body express... |
1898-1900 |
Ah, who has built this girl of nectarous face... |
1898-1900 |
How shall I tell of Caanou's beauty bright... |
1898-1900 |
Caanou to see I had desire... |
1898-1900 |
Sweet and strange as 'twere a dream... |
1898-1900 |
O friend, my friend, has pain a farther bound... |
1898-1900 |
As the swan sails, so moved she... |
1898-1900 |
The maned steeds in the mountain glen for fear... |
1898-1900 |
Why fell her face upon my sight... |
1898-1900 |
In her beautiful face did use... |
1898-1900 |
A shining grace the damsel's face... |
1898-1900 |
I saw not to the heart's desire... |
1898-1900 |
The moonwhite maiden from her bath... |
1898-1900 |
Beauty stood bathing in the river... |
1898-1900 |
O happy day that to mine eyes betrayed... |
1898-1900 |
Beautiful Rai, the flower-like maid... |
1898-1900 |
She looked on me a little, then... |
1898-1900 |
Upon a thorn when the flowers bloom... |
1898-1900 |
Wherever her twin fair feet found room... |
1898-1900 |
I have seen a girl no words can measure... |
1898-1900 |
When the hour of twilight its period kept... |
1898-1900 |
O life is sweet but youth more bright... |
1898-1900 |
Lotus bosom, lotus feet... |
1898-1900 |
When the young warm Love her heart doth fill... |
1898-1900 |
“ 'Tis night and very timid my little love... |
1898-1900 |
Hide now thy face, O darling white... |
1898-1900 |
Still in the highways wake nor dream... |
1898-1900 |
The best of the year has come, the Spring... |
1898-1900 |
A new Brindaban I see... |
1898-1900 |
Season of honey when sweets combine... |
1898-1900 |
Hark how round you the instruments sound!... |
1898-1900 |
In the spring moonlight the Lord of love... |
1898-1900 |
Angry beauty, be not loth!... |
1898-1900 |
A little and a little now... |
1898-1900 |
Childhood is flown, youth arrived... |
1898-1900 |
Low on her radiant forehead shone... |
1898-1900 |
O happy day that to mine eyes betrayed... |
1898-1900 |
|
NINDU BABU (RAMNIDHI GUPTA) (1741-1839) |
Eyes of the hind, you are my jailors, sweetest... |
1900(?) |
Line not with these dark rings thy bright eyes ever!... |
1900(?) |
If the heart's hope were never satisfied... |
1900(?) |
What else have I to give thee? I have yielded... |
1900(?) |
My eyes are lost in thine as in great rivers... |
1900(?) |
Sweet, gaze not always on thine own face in the mirror... |
1900(?) |
Why gazing in the glass I stand nor move... |
1900(?) |
He whom I woo makes with me no abiding... |
1900(?) |
Cease, clouds of autumn, cease to roll... |
1900(?) |
The spring is here, sweet friend, the spring is here... |
1900(?) |
Ere I had taken half my will of joy... |
1900(?) |
Nay, though thy absence was a tardy fire... |
1900(?) |
I said in anger, “When next time he prays... |
1900(?) |
Ah sweet, thou hast not understood my love, -... |
1900(?) |
How much thou didst entreat! with what sweet wooing... |
1900(?) |
How could I know that he was waiting only... |
1900(?) |
Into the hollow of whose hand my heart... |
1900(?) |
Hast thou remembered me at last, my own... |
1900(?) |
I did not dream, O love, that I... |
1900(?) |
In true sweet love what more than utter bliss is... |
1900(?) |
|
HORU THAKUR (HAREKRISHNA THACOOR) (1738-1813) |
Who is this with smearèd limbs... |
1900(?) |
Lolita, say... |
1900(?) |
Look, Lolita, the stream one loves so... |
1900(?) |
I know him by the eyes all hearts that ravish... |
1900(?) |
O fondly hast thou loved, thyself deceiving... |
1900(?) |
What are these wheels whose sudden thunder... |
1900(?) |
All day and night in lonely anguish wasting... |
1900(?) |
|
JNANADAS (GANODAS) (XVI cent.) |
|
O beauty meant all hearts to move!... |
1900(?) |
Ah nurse, what will become of us? This old... |
1900(?) |
In vain my hands bale out the waves inleaping... |
1900(?) |
She. For love of thee I gave all life's best treasures.... |
1900(?) |
Neat-herdess, my star!... |
1900(?) |
Beautiful Radha, Caanou dost thou see not... |
1900(?) |
I will lay bare my heart's whole flame... |
1900(?) |

CHITTARANJAN DAS. Songs of the Sea
(1870-1925) |
O thou unhoped-for elusive wonder of the skies... |
1913 |
I lean to thee a listening ear... |
1913 |
Long gazing on this dawn and restless sea... |
1913 |
The flute of dawn has rung out on the sea... |
1913 |
Upon what bosom shall I lay my bliss... |
1913 |
Dawn has become to me a golden fold... |
1913 |
Behold, the perfect-gloried dawn has come... |
1913 |
I have no art of speech, no charm of song... |
1913 |
All day within me only one music rings... |
1913 |
What is this play thou playest with my life... |
1913 |
My heart wings restless with this music's pain... |
1913 |
O painter, thou thy marvellous art didst use... |
1913 |
O now today like a too brilliant dream... |
1913 |
The day is filled with clouds and dusk and grey... |
1913 |
Today the heavens are sealed with clouds and blind... |
1913 |
This is not now the lyre's melodious stream... |
1913 |
When thy enormous wind has filled my breast... |
1913 |
O high stark Death, ascetic proud and free... |
1913 |
O loud blind conqueror, stay thy furious car... |
1913 |
Thou hast come back, O Lord! this soul, thy sky... |
1913 |
The light of the young dawn round every limb... |
1913 |
O today in heaven there rings high a mournful strain... |
1913 |
Sleep, sleep through clouded moons, O sea, at last... |
1913 |
Where have I seen thee? where have clasped thy hand... |
1913 |
None is awake in all the world but I... |
1913 |
The sun has not yet risen. Luring night... |
1913 |
The sunbeams fall and kiss thy lips and gleam... |
1913 |
Nay, nay, let be! O not today that sound... |
1913 |
How many aeons hast thou flowed like this... |
1913 |
What years, what clime, what dim and distant shore... |
1913 |
My sleepless midnight thou hast filled indeed... |
1913 |
Lighting small lamps and in a little room... |
1913 |
Evening has not descended yet, fast sets the sun... |
1913 |
In this hushed evening on thy billows grey... |
1913 |
Evening has fallen upon the world; its fitting tone... |
1913 |
The great heaven have no voice, the world is lying still... |
1913 |
O by long prayer, by hard attempt have bloomed two flowers, thy
eyes... |
1913 |
Here there is light, - is it darkness on thy farther shore... |
1913 |
Burns on that other shore the mystic light... |
1913 |
This shore and that shore, - I am tired, they pall... |
1913 |
