Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Mor náhi je samay
Mor náhi je samay
Tumi abeláy kena ele
Ogo dayámay ei asamay

Mor maner bakulerá jhariyá geche
Shepháliir phul niice paŕiyá áche
Diipádháre manodiip niviyá geche
Tumi derii kare kena ele
Ogo cinmaya ei asamay

Mor sauṋgiirá sudúre háráyeche
Bhálabásá kothá bhásiyá geche
Mor áshár mukul sab shukáyeche
Tabu mrdu hese kena ese páshe basile
Tumi ogo manomay ei asamay

মোর নাহি যে সময়
মোর নাহি যে সময়
তুমি অবেলায় কেন এলে
ওগো দয়াময় এই অসময়

মোর মনের বকুলেরা ঝরিয়া গেছে
শেফালীর ফুল নীচে পড়িয়া আছে
দীপাধারে মনোদীপ নিবিয়া গেছে
তুমি দেরী করে কেন এলে
ওগো চিন্ময় এই অসময়

মোর সঙ্গীরা সুদূরে হারায়েছে
ভালবাসা কোথা ভাসিয়া গেছে
মোর আশার মুকুল সব শুকায়েছে
তবু মৃদু হেসে কেন এসে পাশে বসিলে
তুমি ওগো মনোময় এই অসময়

I am out of time;
No more time is mine.
At close of day, why did You arrive?
Oh, gracious Lord, this was ill-timed.

The bakul blooms[nb 2] of my mind have fallen down;
My jasmine flowers[nb 3] have dropped to the ground.
On the lampstand, my mental candle has gone out.
Having delayed, why did You arrive?
Oh, Consciousness sublime, this was ill-timed.

Lost to the great beyond are my companions;
Love, to what place has it drifted off?
My buds of hope, they have all shriveled up.
Why then, with tender smile, did You come sit by my side?
Hey, Ruler of the heart, this was ill-timed.
