Let Me Live In Darkness

LET ME LIVE IN DARKNESS BY DR RANJIT DUTTA I have been listening Your call Your voice is very vivid But alas! I have not recognized you! Even failed to recollect your identity! I have not seen anything As I have removed my spectacle And now I feel comfortable . But When I put it In my eyes I face immense difficulties The real image of man Reflects in my spectacle . How long will I visualized The double faces of these funny people? I am bored! I am frustrated to see their Acceptance of darkness with a smile They are one step forward in darkness And two steps backward in daylight. So funny! Hence I put off my glass At least I 'll not see those snobs . Hello, Please don't shout ! I have not come out to the threshold At the call of my soul My room is dark and deep Please do not come in I know you will go back With anguish shouting some slangy And will continue your race after mirage Let me live in darkness too ! Let me see beauty of light from darkness Keeping a distance Far away from you.
