Andhar esechhe bale
Tumi o jaibe chale
Ogo mor asha pran
Amarar madhu gan
Andhare charan tale
Bandhibo nashibo twara
Tumi shudhu mor dhara

Just because darkness has appeared
You, too, will desert me.
O my hope-life,
O my nectar-song of Heaven,
Before long I shall bind and destroy darkness
     Under my feet.
You, you alone, are the light of my world.
