Walk Alone Poem by Rabindranath Tagore

Short Poems By Rabindranath Tagore

If no one answers your call,

Then Walk Alone,

(be not afraid)

walk alone, my friend.

If no one talks to you,

O my unlucky friend,

If no one speaks to you,

If everyone looks the other way and

everyone is afraid,

Then bare your soul

and let out what is in your mind,

(be not afraid)

Speak alone, my friend.

When dark clouds cover the sky,

When darkness engulfs the truth,

when the world cowers

and bows before fear,

You be the flame,

The flame that burns you

and banishes darkness

from the world,

(be not afraid)

Burn alone, my friend.

- Rabindranath Tagore
