Ekti Katha Balo Mago

```

Ekti katha balo mago

Ebar amai ekti katha

Kabe pabo tomar sneha

Shanti jyoti nirabata

Ranga paye na pele thai

Jiban habe dhudhu maru

Barek dekha dile amai

Dibya jiban habe suru

```

Translation

```

Tell me, Mother, only one thing.

Tell me only one thing.

When will I get Your Peace, Light and Silence?

When shall I get them in You?

The day I see You.

If I do not get my salvation at Your Feet,

My mind will become a wild, barren desert.

If You, Mother, stand before me only once,

My life divine will immediately find its way

Toward Your Reality-height.

```
