Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Dúr ákásher niiháriká Kena dúre raye gecha Maner mańiká je tumi Maner choṋyá mor peyecha Tomár ámár bháv paricay Diirgha kavośńa prańay Bhule giye kár nilaye Kon alakáy diip jvelecha Ámi tomáy bhálabási Tomár tare káṋdi hási Niye málá barańd́álá Base áchi sab dekhecha	দূর আকাশের নীহারিকা কেন দূরে রয়ে গেছ মনের মণিকা যে তুমি মনের ছোঁয়া মোর পেয়েছ তোমার আমার ভাব-পরিচয় দীর্ঘ কবোষ্ণ প্রণয় ভুলে’ গিয়ে কার নিলয়ে কোন্‌ অলকায় দীপ জ্বেলেছ আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি তোমার তরে কাঁদি হাসি নিয়ে মালা বরণডালা বসে’ আছি সব দেখেছ	Distant sky's nebula, Why'd You go and stay afar? Mind's precious gem that You are, My psychic contact have You got? The abstract acquaintance tween us, It's a long and cordial friendship. Have You forgotten in whose residence... In which heaven... a lamp You have kindled? In love with You am I; For You do I laugh and cry. My wicker basket^{[nb 2]} holds a wreath, And I am waiting... have You seen everything?
