The poet’s mind floats and dances [German translation]

The poet’s mind floats and dances on the waves of life

amidst the voices of wind and water.

Now when the sun has set

and the darkened sky draws down upon the sea

like drooping lashes upon a weary eye

it is time to take away his pen,

and let his thoughts sink into the bottom of the deep

amid the eternal secret of that silence.

• Artist:Rabindranath Tagore
