False hope is clung to with all one's might and main, till a day comes when it has sucked the heart dry and it forcibly breaks through its bonds and departs. After that comes the misery of awakening, and then once again

False hope is clung to with all one's might and main, till a day comes when it has sucked the heart dry and it forcibly breaks through its bonds and departs. After that comes the misery of awakening, and then once again the longing to get back into the maze of the same mistakes.

Rabindranath Tagore

Mistake, Heart, Break Through

Rabindranath Tagore (2016). “Stories from Tagore”, p.81, Rabindranath Tagore

We manage to swallow flesh only because we do not think of the cruel and sinful thing that we do. There are many crimes which are the creation of man himself, the wrongfulness of which is put down to their divergence from habit, custom, or tradition. But cruelty is not of these. It is a fundamental sin, and admits of no argument or nice distinctions. If only we do not allow our heart to grow callous, its protest against cruelty is always clearly heard; and yet we go on perpetrating cruelties easily, merrily, all of us - in fact, anyone who does not join in is dubbed a crank.

The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart . . .

Rabindranath Tagore

Song, Heart, Agony

Rabindranath Tagore, William Radice (2011). “Gitanjali: Song Offerings”, p.176, Penguin Books India

That which oppresses me, is it my soul trying to come out in the open, or the soul of the world knocking at my heart for entrance?

Rabindranath Tagore

Heart, Soul, Trying

Rabindranath Tagore, Mohit Kumar Ray (2007). “Poems”, p.415, Atlantic Publishers & Dist

If I call not thee in my prayers, if I keep not thee in my heart, thy love for me still waits for my love.

Rabindranath Tagore

Prayer, Heart, Waiting

Rabindranath Tagore, Mohit Kumar Ray (2007). “Poems”, p.21, Atlantic Publishers & Dist

Only Thee That I want thee, only thee---let my heart repeat without end. All desires that distract me, day and night, are false and empty to the core. As the night keeps hidden in its gloom the petition for light, even thus in the depth of my unconsciousness rings the cry ---`I want thee, only thee'. As the storm still seeks its end in peace when it strikes against peace with all its might, even thus my rebellion strikes against thy love and still its cry is ---`I want thee, only thee'.

Rabindranath Tagore

Heart, Night, Light

Rabindranath Tagore (2013). “Gitanjali”, p.54, Simon and Schuster

The speech of my heart will be carried on in murmurings of a song.

Rabindranath Tagore

Song, Heart, Speech

Rabindranath Tagore, William Radice (2011). “Gitanjali: Song Offerings”, p.6, Penguin Books India

The song I came to sing remains unsung to this day. I have spent my days in stringing and in unstringing my instrument. The time has not come true, the words have not been rightly set; only there is the agony of wishing in my heart….. I have not seen his face, nor have I listened to his voice; only I have heard his gentle footsteps from the road before my house….. But the lamp has not been lit and I cannot ask him into my house; I live in the hope of meeting with him; but this meeting is not yet.

Rabindranath Tagore

Song, Heart, Agony

Rabindranath Tagore, “Gitanjali”

Ah, thou hast made my heart captive in the endless meshes of thy music, my master!

Rabindranath Tagore

Heart, Mesh, Made

Rabindranath Tagore, Mohit Kumar Ray (2007). “Poems”, p.11, Atlantic Publishers & Dist

Days come and ages pass, and it is ever he who moves my heart in many a name, in many a guise, in many a rapture of joy and of sorrow. Deliverance is not for me in renunciation. I feel the embrace of freedom in a thousand bonds of delight.

Rabindranath Tagore

Moving, Heart, Names
