Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Tomár tare base base Málát́i mor geṋthechi Tájá phuler pápaŕi sáthe Práńer madhu d́helechi Ráter sheśe shiuli jhare Vyathár shishir tháke bhare Se je káṋde vyathábháre Se kathá ámi bujhechi Je jan gáṋthe sádher málá Táro hiyáy tháke jválá Tumi ki bojha ná go Kata jválá sayechi	তোমার তরে বসে বসে মালাটি মোর গেঁথেছি তাজা ফুলের পাপড়ি সাথে প্রাণের মধু ঢেলেছি রাতের শেষে শিউলি ঝরে ব্যথার শিশির থাকে ভরে সে যে কাঁদে ব্যথাভারে সে কথা আমি বুঝেছি যে জন গাঁথে সাধের মালা তারও হিয়ায় থাকে জ্বালা তুমি কি বোঝ না গো কত জ্বালা সয়েছি	Waiting and waiting for Thee, My garland I've been threading. With the petals of fresh flowers, Sweetness of heart I've conferred. Shiuli^{[nb 2]} blossoms fall at night's end; Hurtful is the dew for them. Weighed down by grief they cry; Their plight I've realized. One who strings a wreath of desire, In the heart a burning pain resides. Lord, do You fail to discern How much torture I've endured?

^ The night-flowering jasmine, known as shephali or shiuli in Bengali, is a shrub whose fragrant flowers open at dusk and close at dawn. The flower is the official state flower of West Bengal. In the context of this song, it is important to note the Latin name for the plant, arbor-tristis, which translates as "sad tree". The plant is also commonly referred to as the "tree of sorrow".
