Offerings

Where shall I keep all these flowers, I don’t have a vase
My little fridge does not hold cakes,
Apples become heart-broken!
Where will I keep so many garlands of love?
My empty plate has filled up with your gifts
Where shall I keep these gifts, stars of seven skies?
I’ve nothing left except this little heart.

Translated by Siddique Mahmudur Rahman
