Lyrics

Roman script	Bengali script	Translation
Áṋdhárer sei hatáshá Ket́e geche áj Áloker parasha peye Kotháy háráye geche marura trśá Madhurer mohana cháye Mor gán se to nay cáoyá Mor hási se ki shudhu páoyá Ámár sakal calá sab dyotanái Suśamár saritá beye Cale áloker nisháná ceye	আঁধারের সেই হতাশা কেটে গেছে আজ আলোকের পরশ পেয়ে কোথায় হারায়ে গেছে মরুর তৃষা মধুরের মোহন ছায়ে মোর গান সে তো নয় চাওয়া মোর হাসি সে কি শুধু পাওয়া আমার সকল চলা সব দ্যোতনাই সুষমার সরিতা বেয়ে চলে আলোকের নিশানা চেয়ে	That selfsame dark despair Has got excised today, The touch of light having attained. Where has my desert-thirst gone off, Under the pleasant shade of sweetness? My song, it is not a prayer; My smile, is it just acquisition? My all movement, every implication, Having plied a river of sweet grace, Proceeds, gazing at the goal of effulgence.

Purport

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

The pathos of darkness has been expelled. It has come in contact with the divine light, the divine effulgence. All my pains of this material world have been banished by Your sweet benign touch; thus all darkness has been removed. The thirst of the desert, the drought of the desert, is no more with me; and my mind is now throbbing with divine energy and dancing in divine ecstasy.
