'O Sun of India's sky'

Bharater rabi jagater kabi Banger hiya chand Sundar tumi bhitare bahire Sundar tumi srishti gabhire Bishwa sabbai tomar asan Prema onkar nad

O Sun of India’s sky,
O World-Poet,
O Moon of Bengal’s heart,
You were beautiful in your outer life,
You were beauty incarnate in God’s entire Creation.
Gloriously and triumphantly you secure your place
In the world-assembly with your creative force,
Supremely meaningful and fruitful in various walks of life.

Sri Chinmoy
