Tumi esechile dhará diyechile
Se kathá bhulite páribo ná (ámi)
Madhura cáhani
Madhura cáhani madhura lávańi
Madhura chande ánágoná

Rúpera ságare
Rúpera ságare d́ub diye ámi
Arúpa ratan peyechinu
Káuṋál hrdaye
Káuṋál hrdaye smarańe mánane
Rájár shiropá parechinu
Tomár námete
Tomár námete gáite gáite
Spandita hay se bhávaná

Áj dhyán dhárańáy
Dhyán dhárańáy divase nisháy
Sárthak mama árádhaná

You came and let me hold You;
That event I cannot forget.
Your gentle glance—
Your gentle glance, Your gentle charm,
Coming gently and gently going.

Into the ocean of forms—
I dived into the ocean of forms;
There I found the formless jewel.
A beggar at heart—
A beggar at heart but calling You to mind,
I assumed a royal headdress.
Your divine name—
Ever chanting Your divine name,
I throbbed with that ideation.

Today, by contemplation and meditation—
By contemplation and meditation, day and night,
My prayer is realized.
