I will set sail on this lashing sea

আমি মারের সাগর পাড়ি দেব বিষম ঝড়ের বায়ে
Aami maarer shagor paari debo

I will set sail on this lashing sea
Plying along a terrifying tempest
In this broken boat of mine

Taking heart in “no more fear”
Setting out despite a torn sail
My boat will reach your shore
In the shade of the banyan tree

The one who loves me will show me the way
All I have to do is cast away fear and set sail
I know for sure I will come to shore at day end
I will place the crimson flowers of my woe at your merciful feet
