Lyrics

Roman script

Tumi jakhan ele
Ghum bháuṋgeni
Kena cale gele
Kii kathá balechile shuni ni
Jáni hesechile

Je pathe esechile se pathe ájo
Rauṋin phule mukule tumi rájo
Varńashobháy surabhi madiráy
Phele rekhe dile

Je pathe cale gecho se pathe ájo
Nei kona práńiinatá mohaka sájo
Marmaviińár táre vyatháhata gáne sure
Dhui áṋkhir jale

Bengali script

তুমি যখন এলে
ঘুম ভাঙ্গেনি
কেন চলে’ গেলে
কী কথা বলেছিলে শুণি নি
জানি হেসেছিলে

যে পথে এসেছিলে সে পথে আজও
রঙিন ফুলে মুকুলে তুমি রাজ
বর্ণশোভায় সুরভি মদিরায়
ফেলে’ রেখে’ দিলে

যে পথে চলে’ গেছ সে পথে আজও
নেই কোন প্রাণীনতা মোহক সাজও
মর্মবীণার তারে ব্যথাহত গানে সুরে
ধুই আঁখির জলে

Translation

When You arrived,
My slumber, it broke not;
Why did You retire?
What words You had said, I heard not;
But I know that You had smiled.

Still now on that path, on the way You had arrived,
With colored flowers blossoming, You reside...
In the beauty of hues, in the liquor of perfume,
You gave and left behind.

Still now on that path, on the way You have left,
There's not any liveliness or even beguiling dress...
On the strings of heart's lute, in hurt lyrics and tune,
I scrub with the water of eyes.
