"WITH YOU ALONE"

WITH YOU ALONE

Where Morning, at the cross roads,
Via Afternoon, into Evening corrodes--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.
Where City, just across a by-lane at the border,
Assumes the evening suburban order--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.
Where Evening, in search of Nocturne
Upon Chronos' prod, decides to sojourn--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.
Where the Stars, at the sky's borderline,
Turn into a silent harmony unconfined--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.
Where Sky, in an envelope of watery Cloud,
Sends you a letter with Rain's shroud--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.
In the flood of your tears, where Rain
Tells stories of someone else's pain--
That's where on my own
I shall meet with you alone.

- a song by Suman Chatterjee (Kabir Suman)
