Bela Hale Chale Jabe Tari Bahi
Bela hale chale jabe tari bahi
Tabe kena ele hetha giti gahi
Tomar tarani pare
Jadi kabhu nibe more
Tabu jena toma pane sada chahi
Tomar bijoy giti gahi
Translation
If it was decided that when the final hour strikes
You will go back sailing your boat,
Why then did You come singing to this world?
If You do not carry me in your boat, no harm.
Do grant me the boon
To invoke you always and sing your victory-song.
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 3, Agni Press, 1981
