Tagore: Liberation

The empowerment of Crown Prince Bakilao Pozoa of Malatti is scheduled for tomorrow morning.

　　The folk entertainer Gerdani, who was not allowed to enter the imperial temple, sat under a Bodhi tree in the corner of the courtyard, played the monostring, and muttered to himself, "God, who made you sit on a hard golden chair?" ”

　　At midnight, the winding moon rises and falls.

　　In the distance, the lights in front of the palace gate were brilliant, the drums were noisy, and Gerdani sang:

　　I walked along the woods path,

　　I heard The grass sobbing.

　　They have dust around their ears,

　　Expect a carefree footprint on your chest.

　　The lantern-laying ceremony was completed and the temple gate was closed. The crowd poured into the palace, and Gerdani continued to sing:

　　O God of Life,

　　Is it their purpose to imprison in the stone niches?

　　Foresee the malay of you and me,

　　You have come to earth from heaven.

　　Pitch black under the Bodhi tree. Gerdani sang alone, and Bakirao listened up close:

　　You called me out of the locked house,

　　Visit the mountains and rivers mirror lake,

　　Thou shalt remove the loneliness of wandering,

　　Be free in your heart.

　　Proud of the barbed wire fence around the stone prison,

　　Let them guard day and night!

　　In the morning, Daystar stood indifferently in the light of the sun. The drums in front of the palace gate were playing in unison, the priest brought holy water, and the empowerment ceremony was about to begin.

　　In the deserted imperial temple, the candlelight is confused and dim, and sacrifices are placed in front of the idols.

　　Bakirao quietly fled and embarked on a wandering path.
