Gitanjali — Song 16

Gitanjali — Song 16

Rabindranath Tagore

I have had my invitation to this world’s festival, and thus my life has
been blessed. My eyes have seen and my ears have heard.
It was my part at this feast to play upon my instrument, and I have
done all I could.
Now, I ask, has the time come at last when I may go in and see thy face
and offer thee my silent salutation?
