Unending Love
Poem by Rabinath Tagore
Music by Jerry Gerber
Sung by Katy Stephan
Score
(for virtual instruments)
I seem to have loved you in numberless forms,
numberless times…
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
My spellbound heart has made and remade the
necklace of songs,
That you take as a gift, wear round your neck in
your many forms,
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
Whenever I hear old chronicles of love, its
age-old pain,
Its ancient tale of being apart or together.
As I stare on and on into the past, in the end
you emerge,
Clad in the light of a pole-star piercing the
darkness of time:
You become an image of what is remembered
forever.
You and I have floated here on the stream that
brings from the fount.
At the heart of time, love of one for another.
We have played along side millions of lovers,
shared in the same
Shy sweetness of meeting, the same distressful
tears of farewell-
Old love but in shapes that renew and renew
forever.
Today it is heaped at your feet, it has found its
end in you
The love of all man’s days both past and forever:
Universal joy, universal sorrow, universal life.
The memories of all loves merging with this one
love of ours –
And the songs of every poet past and forever.
