Nayan amar chai tomare
Kandi deha karagare
E jibane tomar bijoy kabe habe
Neme prabhu asbe kabe amar bhasbe

I live in the prison cell of
My eyeless body,
And there I cry and weep.
Yet my eyes envision not
When Your Victory will dawn
In this deplorable life of mine.
O Lord Supreme,
When will Your Compassion’s
Existence-Light
Permeate my life
Of excruciating pangs?
