Poems by Rabindranath Tagore

Here are few of Tagore Poems

~~~~MANASI~~~~

by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore

Do not go, my love, without asking my leave
I have watched all night, and now
my eyes are heavy with sleep.
I fear lest I lose you when I am
sleeping.
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.
I start up and stretch my hands to
touch you. I ask myself,
"Is it a dream?"
Could I but entangle your feet with
my heart and hold them fast to my breast!
Do not go, my love, without asking my leave.

Another poem by him

~~TELL ME IF THIS BE ALL TRUE, MY LOVE~~

by Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore

Tell me if this be all true,my love

Tell me, if this be all true, my love,
Tell me if this be true.

When these eyes flash their lightning, the dark clouds in your breast
make stormy answer.
Is it true that my lips are sweet like the opening bud
of the first conscious love?
Do the memories of vanished months
of May linger in my limbs?
Does the earth, like a harp, shiver into songs with the touch of my feet?

Is it true then that the dewdrops fall from the eyes of night when I am seen?
And the morning light is glad when it
wraps my body round?

Is it true, is it true that your love
travelled alone through ages and
worlds in search of me?
That when you found me at last, your age-long desire found utter peace
in my gentle speech and my eyes and lips and flowing hair?
Is it then true that the mystery of
the Infinite is written on this little forehead
of mine?
Tell me, my love, if all this be true.
