Kahar tripti lagi
    Kena ami kari eta karma
Amito bujhina hai
    Kabhu kichu tahare marmo
Toma shudhu dhare thaka
    Mor jibaner prati dharma
Kotha tumi kotha tumi
    Mor rakkha kaboch barma

For whose satisfaction
Do I untiringly work?
I know not, alas!
The cord of my life
    Is clinging to You
    At each hush-gap.
Where are You,
O my life’s protection-light?
