Bengali Version
I have loved you so much.
Yet I feel, it falls way too short -
Why can't my heart love you still more?
The deep shadow that quivers in your dark eyes,
The enchanting smile that plays on your lips,
They do not perceive my frustration -
They say, "But you have loved me!"
It is only my heart that weeps and laments,
"Why can't I love you still more..."
You know not, my dear,
In the melody of your soul -
The lyrics of my life, like an injured bird,
Have found a sanctuary.
Yet, this lovely night,
The wreath that you bestow upon me,
The bliss which you bring to my barren life,
They can't feel my destitution -
They say, "But you have loved me!"
It is only my unspoken pain that moans and grieves,
"Why can't this heart love you still more.."
