Sthayi Kichu Kotha Achhe

```

Sthayi kichhu kotha achhe

Dudin tare

Hasi kanna prema lila

Shudhu dudin tare

Ki habe ke jane bal

Dudin pare

Ogo andhar jaogo sare

Ogo alo eso ghare

Hokna ta dudin tare

```

Translation

```

There is nothing permanent.

Transient are the lives of sorrow and joy

Founded on human love.

Nobody knows what is going to happen

In the near future,

Or even tomorrow.

O darkness, let me live alone.

O Light, do enter into my heart,

Even if it is for fleeting days. ```
