Open the doors by Rabindranath

Poet Rabindranath

Open the doors
Lay bare the azure sky.
Let the inquiring fragrance of flowers enter my room
Let the first sunlight suffuse
My every vein every artery;
I am alive,
these celebratory words
The rustling leaves murmur,
let me hear.
May this morning
Drape my mind with its own vestment
Like it covers the meadows
green with new sprouts.
All the love I have found in my life--
I hear resounded in silent words
In the sky in the air,
I bathe today in that blessed anointment
The reality of my whole life,
like a bejewelled necklace
I see imprinted
on the breast of the blue.
