Lyrics in Bangla
প্রাণ ভরিয়ে তৃষা হরিয়ে
মোরে আরো দাও প্রাণ।
তব ভুবনে তব ভবনে
মোরে আরো দাও স্থান ॥
আরো আলো আরো আলো
এই নয়নে, প্রভু, ঢালো।
সুরে বাঁশি পুরে
তুমি আরো দাও তান ॥
আরো বেদনা আরো বেদনা,
প্রভু, দাও মোরে আরো চেতনা।
দ্বার ছুটায়ে বাধা টুটায়ে
মোরে করো ত্রাণ মোরে করো ত্রাণ।
আরো প্রেমে আরো প্রেমে
মোর আমি ডুবে যাক নেমে।
সুধাধারে আপনারে
তুমি আরো আরো আরো করো দান ॥
Translation
Quench my thirst, fill my soul,
More life, give me more life.
In your world, in your abode,
Give me a deeper place, give me my home.
More light, yet more light,
Pour your light, my lord, into these eyes.
With more tunes, tune my flute,
Flood me with your melody.
More pain, still more pain, my lord,
And more consciousness yet to me.
Knock down doors, break down walls,
Free me now, deliver me.
With love, with yet more love
Let the “I” in me drown deep.
In showers of sweetness pour yourself,
yet more and more of you into me.
