Beyond this river of tears

অশ্রুনদীর সুদূর পারে
osru nodir shudoor paare

Beyond this river of tears
On the shore faraway
I see the quay at your doorstep
En-fettered by my own hands
A part of me lingers at home
A part of me slips outside
I will now let go of myself
And drift along with the evening breeze

Hours have gone by in barter and bargain
Buying the burden of what people say

Unload those words from your heart
Listen, do listen in wordless silence
Which song does the Veena play
Strummed by the distant breeze
