Mor kabariir málá shukiyeche
Kańther gán theme geche.
Krandanrata ei sandhyáy
Man shudhu tava krpá yáche

Ekbár balo kono bhay nái
Sange rayechi, thákibo sádai.
Hárái hárái ei bhay pái
Áshár álok nibiteche.

Tabuo ámi damiba ná kabhu
Tava bhávanáy bal pái prabhu
Se áshár diip áj nibu nibu
Táte ghrta salitá eseche.

The flowers in my hair have withered.
The song of my voice has stopped.
In this tear-filled evening my mind craves only for Your grace.
You said once, “Do not fear, I am with you, I shall remain with you always.”
Yet I feel as if I’m going to lose You.
The light of hope is dimming,
Yet I shall never lose heart.
The thought of You brings strength to me, O Lord.
This dimming lamp of hope is relit with new ghee and wick.
