Ratri nai diba nai
Jhup jhup brishtiDekhite dekhite koi
Dibaser khudra parisareBhese gela srishti
Chhanna chhara griha haraManab santan shata shata
Kanditecha artaswareNirashroy nir hara bihanger mato
Nahi anna nahi bastraCharidik shudhu jalomoy
Apar baridhi bakke bhese asaJena khanda bangsha danda
Kariya ashroyAjio rayeche benche
Hatobhagya sarbanashaJara tahader rekeche banchaye
Kon marichika sei konKuhakini asha
``````
Day in, day out it is raining heavily,A deplorable sight.
Birds are helpless, human beings are helpless.Flood, a merciless flood has taken millions
Away to the other world.And those who are still alive
Are building their hopes in the world of nowhere. ```From:Sri Chinmoy,Pole-star promise-light, part 4, Agni Press, 1977
