Andhiyar Charidike Andhiyar

```

Andhiyar charidike andhiyar

Nahi heri hasi pran sushamar

Abasad hiya bane abasad

Madhu khama nahi shudhu aparadh

Ami ar byatha pran dui bhai

Swarge martye amader nahi thai

```

Translation

```

Darkness all around, darkness.

I see not the life of beauty anywhere.

A heart of frustration-night tortures me.

Sweet forgiveness nowhere exists.

I see only a mountain of mistakes

And a sea of punishment.

A heart of sorrow and I are two brothers.

Neither Heaven nor earth

Cares to grant us a little shelter. ```
