Sing the Way Sky Is Singing - Translation

This is the translation of a song written by Rabindranath Tagore, Nobel-laureate Poet from India. The melody is composed by the poet himself. 


The way the sky is singing today, 
My Dearest, sing the song the same way, 
The way the sky is gazing today, 
My Dearest, gaze at me the same way! 

The way the breeze is murmuring in the leaves, 
making the forest to cry, 
Cry in the midst of my heart, 
Cry, and make me cry.

Thank you, Dear Poet, for listening to the song. The lyrics are simple - not hard to translate. Not Kanika, Subimal, Malabika is the singer.
