Notes
- ^ For details on the notation, see Roman Bengali transliteration.
- ^ An equally valid translation presents itself by simply adjusting the perspective from individual to collective. Either perspective is consonant with the Bengali. This shift, requiring only a very modest change in a few words, produces a song with a very different tenor. Due to context (the immediately preceding and succeeding songs), translation from an individual perspective has been given here. Translation from a collective perspective could be as follows:
Today, we could hold the sky
In our eyes, oh, in our eyes.
You arrived today, yes, You arrived;
You came on feet both soft and light
In Your stride, yes, in Your stride.
Buds appeared on withered branches;
On dried up streams, rapids descended.
The desert became full of flowers,
For Your reception, yes, Your reception.
In the dark clouds color prevailed,
And peacocks fanned their lovely tails.
Barren minds, they got pregnant
With Your conception, yes, Your conception.
