Dúr ákásher tárá ogo |
দূর আকাশের তারা ওগো |
Oh Lord, my star of distant sky, |
Purport
This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—[4]
Oh Paramapuruśa, at present You are a star of the distant sky. I see You, but I don't know You. Come gradually closer to me, and sit by my side. Don't try to hide from me. I have many things to say to You. So many pains and so many ideas have accumulated in my mind. Let me express them fully; don't pretend to be deaf. Come near to me. I will tell You everything, and my heart will become light. You are the dearest, the most adored, by all. Everyone wants to be near You. Please don't remain far away. Scriptures bear no significance for me. I am not to be guided by the scriptures. I am to be guided and controlled by devotional love. Whatever the scholars or scriptures may say, I know only that You are mine, and I am Yours. Nothing else can I accept.
