Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Balo e pather sheś kotháy
Ádio dekhi ná anta pái ná
Uttar ke debe ámáy

Kárja kárań tattver ádi vindu
Játe nihita áche ke se citsindhu
Ádi nihita játe anto áche táte
Madhyao calamánatáy

Darshan vijiṋán já khushii tá bale ják
Ashánta mánavatá shántir path pák
Pathasraśt́á prabhu pathabhraśt́a kabhu
Náhi kare jáni drŕhatáy

বলো এ পথের শেষ কোথায়
আদিও দেখি না অন্ত পাই না
উত্তর কে দেবে আমায়

কার্য-কারণ তত্ত্বের আদি বিন্দু
যাতে নিহিত আছে কে সে চিত্-সিন্ধু
আদি নিহিত যাতে অন্তও আছে তাতে
মধ্যও চলমানতায়

দর্শন-বিজ্ঞান যা’ খুশী তা’ বলে’ যাক
অশান্ত মানবতা শান্তির পথ পাক
পথস্রষ্টা প্রভু পথভ্রষ্ট কভু
নাহি করে জানি দৃঢ়তায়

Pray tell, the end of this path is where?
I find no conclusion, nor a start do I see;
The answer, who will give me?

The initial point of causal theory is:
To be dormant Who exists? That sea of consciousness!
To inhere at the outset, at end also He's in there,
And also in between, all along the journey.

Philosophy or science, however we may like to name it:
A disturbed humanity, let us find a path tranquil.
The Master, Path-Creator, ever from the path straying,
He does not make it happen, I know for a certainty.
