/Nayan nehare bishwa bhuvan/
/Herena tahar pran//Tai ankhi duti ruddha kariya/
/Jogi kare tar dhyan//Shruti shudhu shune bahirer katha/
/Shunena oishi bani//Sangjata tai shrutire kariche/
/Satya tapasa gyani/The eye sees the entire world
But it sees not its own life;Therefore, keeping the two eyes closed
The Yogi meditates on You,O Lord Supreme.
The ear hears onlyThe messages and the clamour of the outer world.
It hears not the messagesOf the highest Heaven;
Therefore, the true seeker of wisdomAlways tries to keep his ears
Under his perfect control.```
