Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Nútaner álok ogo
Chile tumi kon sudúre
Jagater chanda ekhan
Nácche tomáy ghire ghire

Ámár oi áṋdhár ráte
Dháká chile kon nibhrte
Nútaner d́áná mele
Ele uŕe timir cire

Ket́e geche sab hatáshá
Phút́eche áj sakal áshá
Sarvavyápii bhálabásá
Bhásche ekhan vishva juŕe

নূতনের আলোক ওগো
ছিলে তুমি কোন্‌ সুদূরে
জগতের ছন্দ এখন
নাচছে তোমায় ঘিরে' ঘিরে'

আমার ওই আঁধার রাতে
ঢাকা ছিলে কোন নিভৃতে
নূতনের ডানা মেলে'
এলে উড়ে' তিমির চিরে'

কেটে' গেছে সব হতাশা
ফুটেছে আজ সকল আশা
সর্বব্যাপী ভালবাসা
ভাসছে এখন বিশ্ব জুড়ে'

Oh my Lord, Light of Novelty,
At a distance You had been.
Now the rhythm of the earth
Is dancing all around Thee.

On that, my night of utter darkness,
Concealed were You somewhere in secret;
Spreading wings ever-new,
You flew in, piercing the gloom.

All despair has been removed;
Today every hope has bloomed.
Love all-pervasive and ubiquitous
Is floating now, soothing the cosmos.

Purport

This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—[4]

Oh Paramapuruśa, You are the new light. Piercing through the veil of Cimmerian darkness, soaring on Your ever-new wings, You have appeared before me and the world as an apostle of newness and an apostle of life. And all the rhythms of the universe are dancing around You. With Your arrival, all frustrations have disappeared, and today hope prevails everywhere. The entire universe has been flooded with a wave of love, and all living beings have started to love each other.
