Janina dubibe kabe
    Tarani amar
Ekaki bahite tare
    Parina je ar
Tule laha taba kache
    Ekhano ja kichu ache
Rekhe diyo bhanga tari
    Charane tomar

I know not when
My life-boat will capsize.
I am afraid it may soon suffer that fate.
I can no longer sail it.
O Lord Supreme, do take away
All that I shall have in my life-boat.
Then I shall place a satisfaction-boat
At my Lord’s Compassion-Feet.
