Mane Prane Dehe Simar Bandhan

```

Mane prane dehe simar bandhan niyata amare dahe

Ami simahin asimer srote chalechi satata bahe

Mukti amar niyata sange shakti amar nai

Jibane amar tomar bijoy kebali niyata chai

```

Translation

```

The bondage of the finite binds me

And stifles my body, vital and mind.

Yet within my heart is the liberation-river

Flowing toward the endless and infinite Source.

Alas, power in the outer world —

I have none.

I desire nothing

But Your complete Victory

In my inner life and outer world. ```
