My Song

In my songs, I have voiced Your spring

flowers and given rhythm to Your rustling leaves.

I have sung into the hush of Your night and 

the peace of Your morning. 

The thrill of the first summer rains has passed

into my tunes and the waving of the autumn harvest.

Let not my song cease. 

Rabindranath Tagore
