Ekti Katha Balar Lagi

```

Ekti katha balar lagi tomar kachhe jai

Bhaye lage tomar pane kabhu nahi chai

Ami ki ma tomai chahi na ki tumi chao

Hriday bane mukti giti kahar tumi gao

```

Translation

```

Just to tell only one small thing

I often come to You.

But when I come to You

Through fear and through shame,

I fail to look at You, at Your Face.

Mother, is it I who want You

Or You who want me?

Tell me, for whom and in whose heart

Do You sing the liberation-song? ```
