Our Souls Dwell Forever
Four hundred days have gone by since your
departure
Thou art always in all my thoughts like my own
nature
No one can ever keep thee hidden from my sight
any more
Many a morn and eve I hear your footsteps coming
ashore
Thy soul has come within my heart and given me
happiness
I know not why my life is all shattered living with
emptiness
Days and nights pass and ages bloom and fade like
flowers
On many an idle day haven’t I grieved for my loss
for hours
When I feel tired of waiting I retire to sleep on my
idle bed
There I dream of all the fond memories you and I
have had
In the morning when I wake up I find all emptiness
around
There isn’t a pretty lotus in the pond and the sweet
sound
All are gone but not forgotten I have a lot to
celebrate now
I have treasured all your memories but I do not
know how
All I know that I still love you and continue to do
so forever
In my hope that the souls of Lakhan and Saroj
dwell forever
