Lyrics

Roman script[nb 1] Bengali script Translation

Prabhu tomár manera kathá
Jáná jáy ná bojhá jáy ná
Atal tumi pátál choṋyá
Tái ki dhará dite cáo ná

Vidyá buddhir jet́uku puṋji
Táhári bale tomáre khuṋji
Alpa jiṋáne jet́uku bujhi
Táháte kona thai pái ná

Ádir khoṋje nijere hárái
Anta khuṋje manane khoyái
Calár pathe jáhá dekhite pái
Kál-váhita táhá tháke ná

প্রভু তোমার মনের কথা
জানা যায় না বোঝা যায় না
অতল তুমি পাতাল-ছোঁয়া
তাই কি ধরা দিতে চাও না

বিদ্যা-বুদ্ধির যেটুকু পুঁজি
তাহারই বলে তোমারে খুঁজি
অল্প জ্ঞানে যেটুকু বুঝি
তাহাতে কোন থই পাই না

আদির খোঁজে নিজেরে হারাই
অন্ত খুঁজে' মননে খোয়াই
চলার পথে যাহা দেখিতে পাই
কালবাহিত তাহা থাকে না

Lord, Your inner thought,
It is known not, fathomed not.
So deep are You, underworld touched;
Thus, to grant hold You want it not?

What little scholarship and intellect I garner,
I search for You, only by that power.
The little I understand through a meager knowledge,
Inside of that my depth I find it not.

In search of Source I lose myself;
By thinking get I lost, seeking the End.
Upon the path of movement, what I can inspect,
Time-borne is that, endures it not.
