```
Urdhe chhila sakal kichhuHethai ami niswa
Gyan jadi pai phire paboMor puratan bishwa
Agyanata dhruva naheGyani amar chaowa
Tomar kachhe rakho magoAmar sakal paowa
```Translation
```
When I was in HeavenI had everything,
And now on earth I have nothing,Absolutely nothing.
When wisdom-sun will dawn,I shall regain my own old Friend eternal.
World-ignorance is not true existence;Therefore, I long only for light.
O Mother, may I place all my longingsAt Your Lotus-Feet.
