সংসারেতে দারুণ ব্যথা লাগায় যখন প্রাণে "আমি যে নাই' এই কথাটাই মনটা যেন জানে। যে আছে সে সকল কালের, এ কাল হতে ভিন্ন-- তাহার গায়ে লাগে না তো কোনো ক্ষতের চিহ্ন।
NO GUEST HAD come to my house for long, my doors were locked, my windows barred; I thought my night would be lonely. When I opened my eyes I found the darkness had vanished. I rose up and ran and saw the bolts of my gates all broken, and through the open door your wind and light waved their banner. When I was a prisoner in my own house, and the doors were shut, my heart ever planned to escape and to wander. Now at my broken gate, I sit still and wait for your coming, You keep me bound by my freedom.
