25. Jiban debata
Jiban debata daki animesh
Khama karo aji more
Ogo sumahan jagater tran
Jagi jena shubha bhore
Translation
O my life’s Love Supreme,
Sleeplessly I invoke You
To forgive me today.
O great One, O world’s Reality-Salvation,
May I be fully awakened
In purity’s auspicious dawn.
25. In the original songbook, the last line read “In prosperity’s auspicious dawn.” This line was later revised by the author.↩
