Rabindranath Tagore - Distant Time, a poem from Gitanjali

"Distant Time" is one of the best poems written by Rabindranath Tagore.
It is the poem number 46 from Tagore’s Gitanjali: An Anthology of Poems.
In this poem, Tagore emphasizes on the concept of God's all encompassing presence. Tagore is in accordance with the Hindu religious thinking that to search for God is vain, look within oneself, you shall find God there.

I know not from what distant time
Thou art ever coming nearer to meet me.
Thy sun and stars can never keep thee hidden from me for aye.
In many a morning and eve thy footsteps have been heard
and thy messenger has come within my heart and called me in secret.
I know not only why today my life is all astir,
and a feeling of tremulous joy is passing through my heart.
It is as if the time were come to wind up my work,
and I feel in the air a faint smell of thy sweet presence.
