Lyrics

Hari jadi ma tor kachhe seito amar joy 
Tor hate ma ja diyechhi ta shudhu sanchoy 
Ar baki sab mulya bihin kebal apabyoy 
Piradayi pather bojha kajer kichhui noy 
Atmagyaner pare amar tor kachhe ma har 
Hale jani pabo ami shreshtha puraskar

Translation

Mother, if I lose to You, that is my only victory.
Whatever I have given into Your Hands,
Is my only savings.
To me the rest is of no value, a mere waste,
And it only tortures me
And stands as a burden on my way.
I cannot put it to use.
When I lose to You,
After I have achieved my full realization,
I know, my greatest reward I shall receive.
