SONGS: Nothing has worked out
Only coming and going
Through death and sorrow
My Bengal of god
Suddenly from the heart of Bengal
If they answer not to thy call
Blessed am I to have been born in this land
This stormy night
I know not how thou Singest, my master
The suit
When life has withered
I'll overcome you
Light of mine, o light
Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people
Thou hast made me endless
You stand on the other shore
The night my doors were shattered
My lamp blown out
Not your word alone
Forgive my languor, o lord
The cloud says, 'I am going'
When my foot prints no longer mark this road
Beyond boundaries of life and death
My time flies
There - in the lap of the storm clouds - the rain comes
Because I would sing
May farewell's platter be replete
Stars fill the sky
Has he come? Or hasn't he?
A slight caress, a few overheard words
POEMS: The spring wakes from its dream
I won't let you go
Swaying
The golden boat
Now turn me back
The lord of life
A half-acre of land
Affliction
Snatched by the gods
Where the mind is without fear
Death-wedding
Pilgrimage to India
The flying geese
In praise of trees
The child
Question
Unyielding
I
Earth
Africa
The day my consciousness was freed
Concord
The pall of the self
They work
On the banks of the Rupnarayan
The first day's sun
The path of your creation
Delusions I did cherish
I thought I had something to say
I threw away my heart
My heart, like a peacock
I ask for an audience
Our master is a worker
The world today
Why deprive me
An oldish upcountry man
Though I know, my friend
At the dusk of the early dawn
The Santal woman
Through the troubled history of man
Those who struck him once.
