Hasi Amar Dekhite Giye

```

Hasi amar dekhite giye

Pelam ami kashta

Bhalo amai karte giye

Haye gelam nashta

Jiban tari shunena hai

Kabhu amar katha

Shanta hate chahi jabe

Dake bachalata

Ar katokal rakhbe mago

Ghor samasya buke

Ei dharanir gehe bujhi

Roina keha sukhe

```

```

I wanted to see my happiness.

Alas, instead of seeing my happiness

What I see is all suffering.

I wanted to make myself good.

Alas, instead of making myself good

I see I have totally spoiled myself.

My life-boat, alas, never listens to me.

When I want to remain silent, alas,

Talkativeness and restlessness

Come and torture my earthly existence.

How long, Mother, will you keep me

In problem-worlds?

Do You mean to say that there is

And can be nobody who is happy

Here on earth?
