Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Kathá diye kena náhi ele
Náhi ele
Sandhyámálatii májh ráte shukiye geche
Kena vrthá more bholále

Álpaná deoyá áche dváre ghare patha pare
Ghrtadiip jválá áche hrdayeri diipádháre
Mandrita jiivaner nandita áṋkhijale
Avahelá kena karile

Hayto emani liilá bhálabása karite
Hayto maner vyathá náhi páro bujhite
Mor sáthe e khelá tava karo liiláchale

কথা দিয়ে কেন নাহি এলে
নাহি এলে
সন্ধ্যামালতী মাঝ রাতে শুকিয়ে গেছে
কেন বৃথা মোরে ভোলালে

আল্পনা দেওয়া আছে দ্বারে ঘরে পথ ‘পরে
ঘৃতদীপ জ্বালা আছে হৃদয়েরই দীপাধারে
মন্দ্রিত জীবনের নন্দিত আঁখিজলে
অবহেলা কেন করিলে

হয়তো এমনি লীলা ভালবাস করিতে
হয়তো মনের ব্যথা নাহি পার বুঝিতে
মোর সাথে এ খেলা তব কর লীলাছলে

Having given word, why did You never appear?
You did not appear.
Mid the night, evening malati is going sere;
Fruitlessly, why did You deceive me?

Sacred art I apply on door and house, and on street;
On the lampstand of my heart, I kindle the light of ghee.
To somber life's gladdened tears
Why did You pay no heed?

Maybe such cosmic game is just to cherish and hold dear,
Or maybe You can't comprehend psyche's agony;
But with me, this Your sport, You make it deceitfully.
