GITANJALI – Song offerings by Rabindranath Tagore- 97

God and man play freely together. In his greaat delight in the play, the poet did not care to learn who is playmate was or what His songs meant. At times he was awar of the divine presence, but only in late life did he realize that it was with the King of kings that he played.

WHEN my play was with thee I never questioned who thou wert. I knew nor shyness nor fear, my life was boisterous.

In the early morning thou wouldst call me from my sleep like my own comrade and lead me running from glade to glade.

On those days I never cared to know the meaning of songs thou sangest to me. Only my voice took up the tunes, and my heart danced in their cadence.

Now, when the playtie is over, what is this sudden sight that is come upon me? The world with eyes bent upon thy feet stands in awe with all its silent stars.
