The Endless Crossing,
Why did you go far away
Leaving me on floating melody?
Why have you come back again
To raise the burden of agony?

The rainbow of pains
Craved for my heart.
We built the dwelling of sorrow and happiness,
Built on the plain of the heart.

Then came the storm today
The bonding has torn apart.
The woe to infinity and
the endless crossing.




Translated by me from Bangla for someone living apart! The song has been used in the Bangla movie " JAGO'

Rock, the song makes me cry when I listen to it alone! It simply takes me down memory lane! Take care of yourself, Rock. Be safe.

 DEAREST LOOK, AS WE SAY HERE, LA VIE N'EST PAS UN LONG FLEUVE TRANQUIL! PEOPLE WE ONCE LOVED GO AWAY FOR AWHILE AND COME BACK CHANGED AND SOONER OR LATER THOSE CHANGES LEAD TO SEPARATION. AND WE ARE LEFT TO GET ON WITH OUR LIFE.

 That is so nice LookLook. I looked up the movie Jago and it is an award-winning documentary about Rohani, an 80-year-old hunter who dives on a single breath descending to great depths for several minutes. Set against the spectacular backdrop of the Togian Islands of Indonesia. The movie was done in 2015. I love the drawings you have posted.

 Look, we are all individuals who have to handle unexpected events in our life., sometimes those events turn out to be a storm, that needs all the energy we have to face the danger and not be swept away. Aren't we all alone?

Yes, my dear Archer, you are right when you say that "LIFE IS NOT A QUIET LONG RIVER!". I have no reason to disagree with you. However, here the story is different. Here the song depicts the agony of someone who feels the presence of the lost love around. Though the song is in the Bangla language, one who does not understand the language, may turn nostalgic while watching the particular scenes of the movie. Take care and be safe.

 Music can lift us up, create peace, or bring us down, but it almost always has some effect on us.
Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Jago - A Life Underwater. I have also seen the documentary a few years back. It is an Amazing film, Shartaun. It tells us about Rouhani, the eighty years old man from the Bajau people, the men from the seas. Thanks for the post. I may, however, mention here that the film, having almost the same title "JAAGO", is a complete Bengali movie...You can watch it on your computer if you feel like it. Just Google "Jaago the Bengali movie".
Shartaun, your posts always enrich my blogs whenever you left them on my blog pages. Stay cheerful and happy. By the by, it was my fault for wrongly spelling the name of the Bengali Movie as Jago instead of Jaago,

The song is a sad song, Maudie. As mentioned, in response to Rocketship's post, the song makes me cry whenever I listen to it. Stay cheerful and safe always.

Absolutely right, Karin. There comes a time when we become all alone! Hope, you are keeping well. Stay safe always.

No doubt, music connects us! Music helps us to regulate our moods and emotions. Thanks, Mrs. Joe, for your post. Stay well and safe always.
