Bengali Poetry (Translated)

I have not loved conditionally

Today, despite having everything, or perhaps because you have it all,
you are alone.
Yet know this—
beyond the reach of your sight
someone loves you.

I am that someone... was, am, will be.

And know this too—
if anyone in this world waits for you until the end,
that person is me.

If ever you see
that no one in this world loves you anymore,
know then
that I have died.

Even if the entire world turns away from you,
I will deny the entire world
and remain by your side.

Whether you are good or bad,
I do not wish to know.
I love you because you are you.

Whether you've forgotten me or remember me,
whether thoughts of me annoy you—
caring nothing for any of this,
I will go on loving you...
not because I couldn't have you,
but because I never loved you on the condition of having you.
