9. Where is bondage?

```

Kothai bandhan kothai bandhan

Kothai kothai timir shasan

Akasher mato amije swadhin

Batasher mato akar bihin

Paramer sathe paramer giti

Bhengeche amar agyan bhiti

```

```

Where is bondage?

Where is bondage?

Where, where is the reign of darkness?

Like the sun, I am eternally free;

Like the air, I am eternally formless.

Singing the Song Absolute

With the Absolute Pilot,

I have smashed the fear

Of my ignorance-night. ```
