Swalpe Tushti Bale Bhai Brihater Khudha

```

Swalpe tushti bale bhai brihater khudha

Amar bipani hate jei kona sudha

Baran kariya laho ghuriona ar

Dubibe jiban surjya namibe andhar

Sarba grasi khudha bale swalpa kare pan

Mitibena trisha mor ogo matiman

Bishwer khanik sukh ati tuchchha jani

Amar mitabe sadh baikunter rani

```

Translation

```

Little satisfaction says to big hunger,

Brother, accept from my little shop

The little nectar that I have.

Do not roam any more.

One day your life-sun will die,

Darkness will descend.

The all-devouring hunger says,

Brother, I shall never be satisfied with little.

The little satisfaction of this world is most

insignificant.

Only the Queen of Heaven can satisfy

My vast hunger.
