Dipta Madhuri Byapta Jethai

Dipta madhuri byapta jethai tomar aloi dore
Khaniker tare basiyo janani amare loiya krore
Dekhibo harashe taba madhurima shunibo tomar bani
Tomar anchale abrita habe khudra e deha khani
Keha dekhibena keha janibena keha shunibena katha
Tomar ankhe labhibo janani madhumoy nirabata
Chapal paran prashanta hale jagaye amare diyo
Bhul pathe jadi jai punaray taniya amare niyo

Translation

Mother, Mother Divine, Mother of mine,
Do place me and my earth-existence life
On Your Divine Lap Supreme.
Mother, O Mother, for a fleeting second,
My heart of inner pangs desires
To be at the door of Your Heart-Home
Which is flooded with Your Sun-Effulgence
And Your Moon-Translucence.
With my heart's breathless joy
I shall drink in the nectar-beauty
Of Your golden Immortality's
Transcendence -Beyond,
And listen to Your loving, glowing,
And life-transforming Compassion-Voice.
This small and fragile earth-body of mine
Discovers its Eternal Haven-Light
In Your Illumination-Perfection heart sky.
Nobody will glimpse, nobody will know,
Nobody will hear the breath of a word.
Eternity's Silence-Life will reign supreme
Upon my devotion-head and my surrender-heart.
Mother, when the spark of restlessness-life
Torments and assails me
And my earth-members, body-vital-mind-heart,
Do destroy my somnolence-oblivion,
Mother, do bring me back if ever I swerve
From the Path of Your Truth-Oneness,
Perfection-Satisfaction-Smile.

Shudhu Sundaro Chira Sundaro

Shudhu sundaro chira sundaro jedike phirai ankhi
Nijo rupa shudha karo bhuji pan amar nayane thaki
Shurer lahori madhur gitika jei spondon tule
Aral hoite shuno bhuji priya bashiya sravan mule

Translation

You are beautiful, eternally beautiful,
You alone are beautiful and none else.
You are eternally beautiful.
No matter which direction I cast my glance,
I see you drinking deep Your Nectar-Beauty
Inside my vision-eye.
Do You hear, my Lord, my Beloved Supreme,
The waves of melody that I create
In secrecy supreme?

Parer Lagiya Marane O Sukh

Parer lagiya marane o sukh
Nijher lagiya pijushe o dukh
Prabhur lagiya sima asimai
Amar amire prabhu jena sada pai

Translation

There is a great joy
When I embrace death for others.
When I drink nectar for myself,
The nectar is nothing but ceaseless suffering.
O, how I wish to lose my very existence
In the finite and in the Infinite
For my Beloved Lord Supreme!

Translation

Inside the very depths of my heart
The jasmine purity-flower has blossomed.
All my attachment-bonds in this life of mine
Are broken, severed today.
Today I am totally lost
In between the seas of nectar and delight.
My Father and Mother divine
Have completely bound me today
In their celestial and eternal oneness
With my soul.

In the unknown Beyond, along with

In the morning flooded with supernal light.
