On the way to death

Translated by: Kazi Rafiqul Islam
Written in Bengali: Laily Jahan Meghla

I am alone, I am helpless
Please stand by me
Days of my life are numbered.
Don’t leave me alone
I am on the verge of my end.
I will leave; no one will be with me
No one will come to see me
I will go, where no one will disturb me.
At the fag end of my life do not hurt me
Please come and stand by me.
