Na jani ki mane kare
Mukhe bhasha dile more
Rachi tale kato gan
Kari kato sudha pan
Katobar sanpi pran
Jibaner puta bhore

I do not know what compels You
To give me speech and voice.
I compose a good many songs about You
And drink nectar-delight.
How many times I have surrendered myself to You
Right from the sacred dawn of my life.
