Barai Boka Tumi Priya Barai Tumi Boka
Barai boka tumi priya barai tumi boka
Kena tumi thakte chaho chirakaloi khoka
Ei abani srijan kare dile kahar hate
Ashru jhare nitya moder agyanatar rate
Translation
You are a great fool indeed, You are
a great fool, O Lord.
Why do You want to remain eternally a babe?
After creating this world, to whom
have You given the responsibility?
Day in and day out we shed bitter
tears in the night of ignorance.
Sri Chinmoy, Garden of love-light, part 2, Aum Press, Puerto Rico, 1975
