You walk where the humble live

(jethay thake sabar adham)
যেথায় থাকে সবার অধম দীনের হতে দীন 

You walk where the humble live

ones that came last, stood low, lost nearly everything..

I, as I salute you realize my salutations stop short
Failing to recognize the abuse you lived with among

ones that came last, stood low, lost nearly everything..

There isn't prejudice in your neighborhood 

Where you live ill-dressed with 

ones that came last, stood low, lost nearly everything..

I look for you in the company of the rich, the famous,
My heart can not touch the humility

as you stand shoulder-to-shoulder with 

ones  that came last, stood low, lost nearly everything..

Please the faithful deeds

(sarthak karo sadhan santwan karo.)

সার্থক কর’ সাধন

Please the faithful deeds
Quench the earth's yearning
life-giving force, quench all lack
with your abiding rich benevolence.
Let the flowers.. flourish..
Fashion the Magnolia-vines.. with floral offering..
Tailor their ballads into lovely silent prayers
with your abiding rich benevolence.
With your quiet stride 
turn the grains of forest-dust
soft-green.
Melt the hidden chill,
with your abiding rich benevolence.

Have I known or haven't I..

(bujhechhi ki bujhi nai.)
বুঝেছি কি বুঝি নাই বা সে তর্কে কাজ নাই

Have I known or haven't I..
I shall not contend.. along these lines.
Whatever it was made me happy.. 
is all I have to share.

In the day-break everything looks reborn..
As if I face.. a timeless being I don't recognize.

As I busy myself with regular chores
I can heed ballads.. 
they offer me with a mellow distraction.

Somewhere within..
I am not sure, when a footfall happens.
It is a discovery.

Wake, awake song of mine..

  jag jag re jag sangit. 

জাগ' জাগ' রে জাগ' সঙ্গীত 

Wake, awake song of mine.. make aura in my thoughts.
deepen joy flicker rays of your love in my heart.

Free the thrall of lyrical notes and let them travel the world.
Let them launch a note of joy to the sky and stars..

Make the tempo.. string the necklace around kindred hearts..
Fill the sky with grand ballads in this epic celebration.
