Song of Rabindranath Tagore

We provide the meaning of Tagore songs in English on the basis of visitor's request. Translating a Tagore song is very difficult, hope you will agree. We provide this service according to our capability, feelings and knowledge which may differ with others. We do not wish to claim these as serious translations as the site has its focus on the better reproduction of the songs. Translations of regional feelings are never an easy proposition, that too in the form of a verse. Hence we chose to go for a form that is adaptable and equally lucid to the viewers across the globe. We give additional explanations for the typical Indian and Bengali words that may cause confusion. We even attach images where words are found insufficient. The language is deliberately kept as uncomplicated as possible. This service is absolutely free for all.

We are ready to accept such works from anyone who is willing to share with this site. The Editor holds the rights to accept or reject any write-up.

AVAILABLE
My mind is accompanying clouds
Floating towards the far horizon
High in the endless void, along with the rain-song of the SHRAVANA –
Rim-jhim, Rim-jhim, Rim-jhim.
My mind flies with the flutter of the crane-wings,
Occasional flashings of the thunder illuminate.
Blizzard sounds like feet-jewellery in the scary divine expression of joy.
Gushing sound from the springs
Beacons for devastation.
Wind blows from the eastern ocean,*
Nimble, wet breeze like smooth wave of a river.
My mind tends to speed away with its crazy flow – 
In the woods, bushes of TAAL-TAMAL –
With the fanatic movements of their branches.

- Translated by Anjan Ganguly

SHRAVANA: Fourth month of the Bengali calendar, second of the monsoon season.

*: It is believed that the wind from the east brings rain in Bengal.

TAAL-TAMAL: Tropical trees.

My heart, a companion of clouds, 
Flies away to faraway horizons,
Towards boundless void,
In this music of the showers of Shraban.
My heart flies away on the wings of the rows of swans
In this restless light glittering now and then.
With a furious joy the storm thunders.
The ripples of the stream softly murmur 
Invoking the holocaust.
The wind blows from the eastern ocean
And raises the waves in the river.
My heart runs away in its maddening flow
Towards the trembling branches of the palm forest.

- Translated by Shailesh Parekh
