Tagore song, Posted and translated by ranu

Dheeray, dheeray ,dheeray bao ogo utal hawa

Slowly, slowly,slowly blow oh restless wind

Midnight’s flute is playing

Be calm , be calm oh restless wind

Slowly, slowly blow oh restless wind

I am the lamp’s flame, for you

I fearfully stay awake

I am the flame

I fearfully stay awake for you

Whisper quietly what’s on your mind

Oh restless wind

Your string of verse in the

distant forest

lands in the corner

of my house

I have something to say

to the early morning star

accept those words secretly

in a whisper oh restless wind

Slowly slowly slowly blow

oh restless wind

Midnight’s flute is playing

Be calm, be calm

oh restless wind!

DP Daily Prompts: Advantage of Foresight

You’ve been granted the power to predict the future! The catch—each time you use your power, it costs you one day( as in you’ll live one day less).How would you use this power, if at all?

The catch takes away the fun of predicting the future. The fun of predicting is taken away by saying, I’ll lose a day of my life every time I use the power.

For the sake of argument I’m writing what if I have only thirty days to live and because I have the power to predict the future, there’ll be friends and family interested to know, given the fact each prediction costs me a day’s life, I’d lose my life in a very short time.

I am sorry but I will not use my power it’s too risky.

365 Writing Prompts: Regrets I’ve had a few

What’s your biggest regret?How would your life have been different if you’d made another decision?

We are human beings after all, we are never satisfied with what we have we feel life would be different if we made a different choice.

As a child growing up I loved to learn to sing, because music was my favorite, I loved to listen,sing, I enjoyed it immensely. My mother thought it should only be heard and enjoyed, it wasn’t something you spend your days learning, in other words it was not a career her child should choose.

She wanted her children to have the right education, music wasn’t one of them. So I studied, art,history,geography and all the other subjects which counts to have good education.

Regrets,sure mine was I could have studied and learned to sing as well,but that was not an option, I was only twelve or perhaps thirteen,what did I know, at that age I needed guidance and my mom helped me with it.

Time they say heals all wounds, I suppose mine is  healed too.
