Clouds heap upon clouds
by Rabindranath Tagore
(Poem)
In this poem, the poet talks of the sadness
and gloom because God has tailed to come and they have not been united. At this,
he feels a lot of pain and complains to God like a woman complaining to her
lover. The poem is a beautiful poem for the mixing of the secular and religion.
Clouds heap upon clouds
Clouds
heap upon clouds and it darkens.
Ah,
love, why dost thou let me wait outside at the door all alone?
In
the busy moments of the noontide work I am with the crowd,
but
on this dark lonely day it is only for thee that I hope.
If
thou showest me not thy face, if thou leavest me wholly aside,
I
know not how I am to pass these long, rainy hours.
I
keep gazing on the far away gloom of the sky,
and
my heart wanders wailing with the restless wind.
