বনের পথে পথে বাজিছে বায়ে
                 নূপুর-রুনুরুনু কাহার পায়ে।
কাটিয়া যায় বেলা মনের ভুলে,
          বাতাস উদাসিছে আকুল চুলে--
                 ভ্রমর মুখরিত বকুলছায়ে
       নূপুর-রুনুরুনু কাহার পায়ে।

FROM His eternal seat Christ comes down to this earth, where, ages ago, in the bitter cup of death He poured his deathless life for those who came to the call and those who remained away.
He looks about Him, and sees the weapons of evil that wounded His own age.
The arrogant spikes and spears, the slim, sly knives, the scimitar in diplomatic sheath, crooked and cruel, are hissing and raining sparks as they are sharpened on monster wheels.
But the most fearful of them all, at the hands of the slaughterers, are those on which has been engraved His own name, that are fashioned from the texts of His own words fused in the fire of hatred and hammered by hypocritical greed.
He presses His hand upon His heart; He feels that the age-long moment of His death has not yet ended, that new nails, turned out in countless numbers by those who are learned in cunning craftsmanship, pierce Him in every joint
They had hurt Him once, standing at the shadow of their temple; they are born anew in crowds.
From before their sacred altar they shout to the soldiers, 'Strike!'
And the Son of Man in agony cries, 'My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?'

WHO HAS EVER taught the widowed wife to burn herself on the pyre of her dead husband?
And who has ever taught love to find bliss in renunciation?
