Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Shudhu tomár priitir áloke Tomáke jáná bojhá jáy Vidyá buddhi kona káje láge ná Sab kichu hay krpáy Jatai jánuk jiiv jiṋán tár siimita Parimita ádháre buddhio^{[nb 2]} parimita Tumi nitya tava sab kichu siimátiita Spandita tava dyotanáy Tabe kena ahamiká kenai bá bhule tháká Nijer ajiṋatá vágjále kena d́háká Tomár áloke cetaná jágáo loke Cinmay tava karuńáy	শুধু তোমার প্রীতির আলোকে তোমাকে জানা বোঝা যায় বিদ্যা-বুদ্ধি কোন কাজে লাগে না সব কিছু হয় কৃপায় যতই জানুক জীব জ্ঞান তার সীমিত পরিমিত আধারে বুদ্ধিও পরিমিত তুমি নিত্য তব সব কিছু সীমাতীত স্পন্দিত তব দ্যোতনায় তবে কেন অহমিকা কেনই বা ভুলে’ থাকা নিজের অজ্ঞতা বাগ্‌জালে কেন ঢাকা তোমার আলোকে চেতনা জাগাও লোকে চিন্ময় তব করুণায়	Only neath Your love's effulgence Knowing You and fathoming succeed. Scientific intellect, it has no effect; Everything comes by Your kind mercy. As much as creatures may know, hedged is their knowledge; In a vessel restricted is intelligence also restricted. But You are eternal, Your everything is beyond limit, Vibrant with implicit meaning. As such, what reason for vanity; why oh why stay oblivious? What motive to conceal one's own ignorance with verbiage? Through Your effulgence cognition You waken within people, Consciousness personified by Your sympathy.
