POESY : THE HOUR IS UP


THE HOUR IS UP

The visa will expire soon.
And another day goes in vain.
Mother, where art Thou, where?
Must I be born again?

In this dark deep night sombre
Shouldst Thou not see me through
In vain I lived this life
Bereft, bereft of You.

Out goes there the fire,
The embers burn in low.
Blinded I but wander,
My path scarce I know.

Mother, Thou light of the world,
Thou million moons beaming,
Shed Thy mask for once
And lead me behind the seeming.

Composed by Sugata Bose
