Lyrics

Roman script	Bengali script	Translation
Uccát́ana mana ná máne bárańa, Shudhu tár páne jete cáy, Keno cáy ogo keno cáy Dharańiira dhúli vaner kákali, Phele ásá sei madhu din guli Maner mádhuri sabái ke niye Tári májhe múracháy, Keno cáy ogo keno cáy Jata chilo kathá jata chilo mán? Nábolá vyathár jata abhimán Sabái ájike miliyá mishiá Tári páne keno chut́e jáy, Keno cáy ogo keno cáy	উচাটন মন না মানে বারণ, শুধু তার পানে যেতে চায় কেন চায় ওগো কেন চায ধরণীর ধূলি বনের কাকলি ফেলে' আসা সেই মধু দিনগুলি, মনের মাধুরী সবাইকে নিয়ে তারই মাঝে মূরছায় কেন চায় ওগো কেন চায যত ছিলো কথা, যত ছিলো মান, না-বলা ব্যাথার যত অভিমান, সবাই আজকে মিলিয়া মিশিয়া তারই পানে কেন ছুটে' যায় কেন চায় ওগো কেন চায	My restless mind heeds no restrictions. It only wants to move towards Him. Why this desire, oh why this desire? The dust of the earth, the murmurings of the forest, those sweet days of the past the sweetness of my mind all together merge in Him. Why this desire, oh why this desire? My unexpressed words, my feelings of ego, the unspoken pain of my wounded pride today these all together rush towards Him, Why do they rush towards Him? Why this desire, oh why this desire?

Purport

This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—

There are so many charms, so many objects of fascination on this earth, but the accumulated force of all these sweet worldly attractions is far less than the attraction for Paramapuruśa (the Supreme Consciousness). Before this Supreme Attraction all other worldly attractions fade. The mind wants a closer affinity to Him; and no charms, no attractions, no fascinations of this mundane world can create any obstacles on the path. Now there remains the eternal question: why is the cosmic attraction so powerful and irresistible? Why is the call of the Great so great?
