Lyrics

Roman script	Bengali script	Translation
Ámi shudhu hesechi necechi geyechi Cáṋder álor sáthe bháv karechi Jáhá kichu dekhechi shunechi peyechi Maner mańi kot́háy enke rekhechi Akaruńa jhaiṋjhára váy Yadi tárá háráiyá jáy Sab háránor sheś jáhára káche Sekhánei geye rekhechi Álo nái jekháne práń nái sekháne Álor devatá áj khuṋje peyechi	আমি শুধু হেসেছি নেচেছি গেয়েছি চাঁদের আলোর সাথে ভাব করেছি যাহা কিছু দেখেছি শুনেছি পেয়েছি মনের মণি কোথায় এঁকে রেখেছি অকরুণ ঝঞ্ঝার বায় যদি তারা হারাইয়া যায় সব হারানোর শেষ যাহার কাছে সেখানেই গেয়ে রেখেছি আলো নাই যেখানে প্রাণ নাই সেখানে আলোর দেবতা আজ খুঁজে পেয়েছি	I have only laughed, danced, and sung; With the moonlight I have made friends. Whatever I have seen, heard, or realized I have etched in the jewel box for mind. The merciless, tempestuous winds— Where stars disappear without trace, Where everything dear winds up lost— There I go on singing. Where light is not, life is not. Today I found the apostle of light.

Purport

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

I have fallen in love with the luster of the moonlight. So I am only laughing and dancing and singing. I have established my friendship with the moonlight, not with the moon; because the moon maintains a distance, but moonlight is very close. Moonlight is my friend, mon ami. Whatever I have realized, whatever I have treasured, if various obstacles or hindrances cause that to be lost, still I have lost nothing. Where there is no divine effulgence, there is no life. But, today, I have discovered the apostle of light.
