Ke ele áji ke ele
Tumi vishvadoláy dol diye ele
Bhávaloke chile niice neve ele
Dharár dharáchoṋyáy mishiye gele
Sudúrer tárá kácht́ite ele
Sudúrer rág man mátále
Háráno dhvani tumi káńe bhese ele
Háráno chanda nác náciye dile
Ashrubhará áṋkhi muchiye dile
Ságarer mańi tumi práń juŕále
Who came, Who came today?
Rocking the cradle of the world, You came.
From the realm of thought, down You came;
You mingled, bearing Earth's embrace.
You came most near, a star from faraway;
The mind You thrilled, music from a distant place.
The lost tune floating into ears, You came;
The lost beat that makes us dance You gave.
The tears that were filling eyes You wiped away;
Oh, Jewel of the Sea, our hearts You assuaged.
