Lyrics

Roman script^{[nb 1]}	Bengali script	Translation
Jhará kusumera vyathá bojho ná Keṋde keṋde mari shukáiyá paŕi Tomár nayan bheje ná Rúp d́háliyáchi suvás diyechi Madhura rabhase matáye rekhechi Dehapat́ sane nat́eri matan More nihsheś karo ná Kali haye chinu tomár manete Phút́echinu ámi tava hrdayete Rikta paráńe vigata paráge Ámáre bhúliyá jeo ná	ঝরা কুসুমের ব্যথা বোঝো না কেঁদে কেঁদে মরি শুকাইয়া পড়ি তোমার নয়ন ভেজে না রূপ ঢালিয়াছি সুবাস দিয়েছি মধুর রভসে মাতায়ে রেখেছি দেহপট সনে নটেরই মতন মোরে নিঃশেষ করো না কলি হয়ে ছিনু তোমার মনেতে ফুটেছিনু আমি তব হৃদয়েতে রিক্ত পরাণে বিগত পরাগে আমারে ভুলিয়া যেও না	Don't You know the sorrow of the falling flower? I wither in tears and drop as I shrivel– How do Your eyes remain dry? I've displayed beauty and bestowed fragrance; I've mesmerized with sweet surges of emotion. Now as I decay, like the wicked, Don't bring me to an end. In the bloom of youth, I was in Your mind; I blossomed in Your heart. As I pass away and when I die, Please do not forget me.^{[nb 2]}

^ For details on the notation, see Roman Bengali transliteration.
^ The flower metaphor in this song is so unrelenting that one can only wonder if it is a metaphor at all. A more literal translation of this last verse would be:
As a flower bud, I was in Your mind;
I blossomed in Your heart.
Pollen spent, devoid of life,
Please don't forget me.
