The next selection admits to the reality of mortality, and that death fairly terminates every last identifiable marker of a life. Yet, one reality enamored with life expresses gratitude for all of life's gifts, and wishes to his signature upon the living and non-living elements of creation.

Jani Prithibi Amay Jabe Bhule - (Lyricist original Bengali: Shyamal Gupta)

Translation  2019 MRC

I know the earth will forget me

All hopes and longings, lost at the shoreline of life's river.

All hopes and longings, lost at the shoreline of life's river.

I know the earth will forget me

May the light of my eyes burn like a star

May my breath scattered in the winds never proclaim I am not.
