24. Nayan amar chai tomare

```

Nayan amar chai tomare

Kandi deha karagare

E jibane tomar bijoy kabe habe

Neme prabhu asbe kabe amar bhasbe

```

```

I live in the prison cell of

My eyeless body,

And there I cry and weep.

Yet my eyes envision not

When my victory will dawn

In this deplorable life of mine.

O Lord Supreme,

When will Your Compassion’s

Existence-Light

Permeate my life

Of excruciating pangs? ```
