Aghat Hani Bare Bare
Aghat hani bare bare tader komal prane
Tabu ase dake amai bhalobasar gane
Jatai tader dure theli tatai apan hoy
He bidhata amar majhe tader hauk joy
Translation
I hurt them mercilessly;
Their soft and delicate hearts I hurt,
I strike.
But they come back to me again and again
With the song of love.
The further I throw them out of my
boundary,
The closer they come to me.
O Lord Supreme,
May their victory alone be proclaimed
in my heart.
