O’ milady from distant shores

I know, I do know who you are
O’ milady from distant shores
You hail from beyond oceans, far
O’ milady from distant shores

You, I beheld, in autumn lights
You, I beheld, in moonlit nights
You, I hold, within my core
O’ milady from distant shores

I listened awestruck and spellbound
In the vast skies your songs resound
My soul is for yours to take unbound
O’ milady from distant shores

I have tread a thousand miles
To set foot in your native isles
I arrived alone at your doors
O’ milady from distant shores

(Translation of "Ami chini go chini tomarey ogo bideshini" by Tagore)
