```
Dudin par phuraye jaiJiban abhinoy
Praner asha maner swapanSakali sanchoy
Dhaner garob jasher garobAhamikar mittya bhoy bal
Bhasma haye sabi pure jaiShudhu thake manob asahai
```Translation
```
The life-drama endsAfter a short time.
The hope of human heartAnd the dream of human mind,
And all that is garneredIn human life —
Pride and self-giving,Pride and self-esteem,
Will all end in a fruitless smoke.Yet man will eternally treasure
The endless chain of hope-life. ```From:Sri Chinmoy,Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 1, Agni Press, 1978
