The sky speaks out its heart

আজ আকাশের মনের কথা ঝরো ঝরো বাজে
Aaj akasher moner kotha

The sky speaks out its heart
In pitter patter raindrops today
My heart beats to that tune throughout the day

The shadow of clouds creep across
The dark waters of the lake
The breeze sings of an ancient ache from another epoch
My heart beats to that tune throughout the day

Alone I sit by the dark casement
To each other we speak, the sky and I

Words from faded memories
Like the soft rustling of leaves
Ring out in a soft dewy melody
In the evening alive with the chirp of crickets
My heart beats to that tune throughout the day
