Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Kon shalákáy pradiip jvele Enecho tumi áji Diip jvalche to jvalei caleche Ajasra shikháte sáji Saptaloke diipta kare Sab áṋdhárke lupta kare Sakal jiivke trpta kare Sájáye rauṋer sáji Sudiirgha tapasyá sheśe Diip jválále nirnimeśe Tár álotei avasheśe Sárle tomár sab káji	কোন্‌ শলাকায় প্রদীপ জ্বেলে’ এনেছ তুমি আজি দীপ জ্বলছে তো জ্বলেই চলেছে অজস্র শিখাতে সাজি’ সপ্তলোকে দীপ্ত করে সব আঁধারকে লুপ্ত করে সকল জীবকে তৃপ্ত করে সাজায়ে রঙের সাজি সুদীর্ঘ তপস্যা শেষে দীপ জ্বালালে নির্নিমেষে তার আলোতেই অবশেষে সারলে তোমার সব কাজই	With which stick did you light the lamp You have brought today? Is that lamp kept ablaze, Arrayed as countless flames? It illuminates the seven spheres^{[nb 2]} And makes all darkness obsolete. It pleases every living being, Their wicker trays decked colorfully. At the end of very long austerity, You lit the lamp that never blinks. Finally, with that light only, You finished your complete duty.
