Translation of Tagore Song "Aji Dokhino Duar Khola"

My southern entrance is left open today
Come home, come, enter your abode

O my spring thou come to me
Today my southern door will be open

I'll put your heart on waves
Come home, come, make your entry

Fresh in your green dewy chariot
Come thou with your steps over the star flowers
To my garden.

[Collectively translated.]
