Jiivant́á nay theme jáoyá bhái
My kin, life does not stay halted;
We dance onward, toward the formless.
We did not come here for weeping;
Through cadence and song we tell a story.
In outer space plies a distant nebula;
Swaying to its mood and tempo is mind's gem.
The dust-mote, also it moves every instant;
And in straw's bosom, a bud does blossom.
Heart's ardor and cognition's luster,
All despair they trample over.
My kin, life does not get halted.
