Raktim kishalay is the 50th song of Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar's Prabhat Samgiita.[1][2][3] It is also known as the Seva Dal song or the flag song, because Seva Dal cadre sing this song in a call-response fashion before raising and lowering the Ananda Marga flag.

Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Raktim kishalay (ámi)
Sojá pathe cali ámi
Báṋká pathe kabhu kabhu nay

Ámár sumukhe áche shyámala shobhá
Ámár dupáshe áche aruńa ábhá
Uṋcu shire cali ámi
Niicu shire kabhu kabhu nay

Ámár báhute áche vajrera bal
Ámár áṋkhite áche drśt́i vimal
Sojá kathá bhávi ámi
Báṋká kathá kabhu kabhu nay

রক্তিম কিশলয় (আমি)
সোজা পথে চলি আমি
বাঁকা পথে কভু কভু নয়

আমার সুমুখে আছে শ্যামল শোভা
আমার দু'পাশে আছে অরুণ আভা
উঁচু শিরে চলি আমি
নীচু শিরে কভু কভু নয়

আমার বাহুতে আছে বজ্রের বল
আমার আঁখিতে আছে দৃষ্টি বিমল
সোজা কথা ভাবি আমি
বাঁকা কথা কভু কভু নয়

I am a reddish tender leaf.
I walk a straight path,
Never a crooked path.

To my front is verdant beauty;
On my two sides is a crimson glow.
I walk with head held high,
Never with a bowed head.

In my arms is the power of thunder.
In my eyes is unclouded vision.
I think straight thoughts,
Never crooked thoughts.

Purport

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

People should always remember that they are like kishalay, reddish tender leaves. You know, when leaves are very tender, they are reddish; and those reddish leaves are called kishalay in Saḿskrta. When, after some time, those leaves become green, they are called patra. And when the leaves become old and yellowish, they are called parn’a. Now, here it is said, "I am kishalay. I am a reddish leaf. And I always move forward along a straight path, and not along any curved line. My thoughts are always clear and concise. And I keep my thoughts and sentiments above all impurities."
