Tagore

What makes Tagore so special?To me Tagore is inimitable because in his poems the object of love is unknowable and somehow he magically connects this unknowable with the Lord....that is the beauty,which moves me every time I read his poems.

Remember me, still remember me, if I go far away, still remember me If old love gets covered by the mesh of new love, remember me still remember me If I stay close by, yet you cannot see whether, like a shadow, I am present or not, remember me still remember me If tears come to your eyelids If tears come to your eyelids If play ceases one day, one spring night, still remember me If work is stopped one day, one autumn dawn, remember me If I come to your mind, yet heavy tears no longer brim in the corners of your eyes still remember me Remember me, still remember me

-Rabindranath Tagore
