Ek khana banka path kantake ghera
Pratipade badha pai bhishan e bera
Nai alo nai bayu shudhu kalo chhaya
Bibhishika dekhateche dhare bhima khaya
Eka eka nirajane bhrami sei pathe
Bhulegechi ashiyachi ami kotha hate

A tortuous road full of thorns;
At every step I encounter dire obstacles.
No light, no air, only a black shadow before me.
With a giant body he frightens me.
Alone I walk along an unlit, lightless labyrinth.
Long have I forgotten where my source is.
