Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Álo jhará kon sudúr prabháte
Dekhá hayechilo tava sáthe
Jeneo sedin jánite pári ni
Bujhite pári ni kona mate

Ahaḿkárete chilám uddhata
Jiṋáner cápete buddhite kśata
Natajánu haye jánite bujhite
Pári niko lája-bhayete

Pelám ná kichu darshane khuṋje
Vijiṋáne gelo mánavatá ghuce
Rágátmiká e bhaktite dekhi
Ese gecho dharáchoṋyáte

আলো ঝরা কোন সুদূর প্রভাতে
দেখা হয়েছিলো তব সাথে
জেনেও সেদিন জানিতে পারি নি
বুঝিতে পারি নি কোন মতে

অহংকারেতে ছিলাম উদ্ধত
জ্ঞানের চাপেতে বুদ্ধিতে ক্ষত
নতজানু হয়ে জানিতে বুঝিতে
পারি নিকো লাজ-ভয়েতে

পেলাম না কিছু দর্শনে খুঁজে
বিজ্ঞানে গেলো মানবতা ঘুচে
রাগাত্মিকা এ ভক্তিতে দেখি
এসে গেছো ধরাছোঁয়াতে

O lord,
when was that effulgent morning, long ago,
when i first met you?
I cannot recall the day
or the circumstances.

I was once arrogant, full of pride,
cultivating bookish knowledge
with my shallow intellect.

I finally sank to my knees
due to shame and fear,
yet could not understand
or come to know you.

Even after imbibing philosophy,
I did not attain you;
merely realising that materialistic science
had destroyed humanity.

At last, in the surrender of devotion
I found you close to me.
