The End of Desires

Subhas Chandra Saha

What I seek is not to be found
Because my desires burn dim,
Like the beauty of the flower
When it shrinks.
The breeze is fragrant, the sun warm;
The spiralling stalks of the vine
Wear a sunny, green covering;
The shadows stretch; the cushion
Is the sleek, spawning grass.
Beside the brushing brook I repose
To bathe in her eyes� dusk.
What is this?...After this?…Tender dream?
Would my desires
Find their end in the ash?
–S±«µþ±á´¡³§ CHANDRA SAHA
