Chalo Jai Chalo Jai Chalo Jai

Chalo jai chalo jai chalo jai
Hetha nai hetha nai hetha nai
Asha hasi aradhana prema sudha
Aloker asimer puta khudha
Chalo jai chalo jai chalo jai
Hetha nai hetha nai hetha nai
Amader bidhatar tari banshi
Achhe shudhu bhul giri rashi rashi
Nahi pabo hetha kabhu jaha chai

Translation

Let us go.
Here there is no hope, there is no smile,
no adoration,
No divine love, no nectar, no hallowed
hunger for the Light of the Infinite.
Let us go, let us go.
Here there is no boat, no flute of our
Supreme Lord.
Here there is only a chain of falsehood
mountains.
Whatever you want, you shall never get it here.
Let us go, let us go.
