Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Kuńále káṋt́á tháke ke ná jáne Tái bale ki kamal tulibo ná balo priya Áṋdhár nishiithe pái ná dekhite Tabe ki pathe calibo ná ajiṋeya Já nái ámár káche tái je asár Hena kathá kakhano bhávibo ná ár Asáre májhe tháke sár samáhár Khańir andhakúpe hiirá jvale ramańiiya Abodh ámi náná bhul bhevechi Satya tattva jene náhi menechi Sáyáhne ese áj path peyechi Sandhyá sáyare jvalo tumi dyuti varańiiya	কুণালে কাঁটা থাকে কে না জানে তাই বলে কি কমল তুলিব না বলো প্রিয় আঁধার নিশীথে পাই না দেখিতে তবে কি পথে চলিব না অজ্ঞেয় যা নাই আমার কাছে তাই যে অসার হেন কথা কখনো ভাবিব না আর অসারের মাঝে থাকে সার-সমাহার খনির অন্ধকূপে হীরা জ্বলে রমণীয় অবোধ আমি নানা ভুল ভেবেছি সত্য তত্ত্ব জেনে' নাহি মেনেছি সায়াহ্নে এসে' আজ পথ পেয়েছি সন্ধ্যা সায়রে জ্বলো তুমি দ্যুতি বরণীয়	Who does not know that in the stem of lotus there are thorns? Does it say that it would not lift the lotus flower? Tell me O Beloved. In the dark night I am unable to see, then would not I move on the path? O the Unknowable. What I do not possess, that is insignificant, this type of thing I shall never think any more. Within the useless is collection of essence. Within the dark well of mine, beautiful diamond glitters. I am ignorant, I think mostly erroneously. Even after knowing the essence of truth, I do not accept that. Coming at the evening, today I found the path. Over this ocean at evening, You kindle the adorable glow.
