Lyrics:
1. Ajike Amar Hridaya Duar
Ajike amar hridaya duar
Khule dao prabhu khule dao
Sakal kalima manas haite
Muchhe nao prabhu muchhe nao
Tomar sebar jogya habar
Adhikari karo santane
Shaishab hate ami jena chali
Niyata tomar sandhane
Translation:
Today do open my heart’s door, O Lord.
All the ugliness, darkness and ignorance
that I cherish
Do remove from the depth of my heart.
I know I am not worthy of worshipping You,
But do make me worthy.
Right from my childhood may I search for You;
May I cry only for You.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Pole-Star Promise-Light, Part 3’ songbook
2. Akarane Prabhu Chitte Tomar
Akarane prabhu chitte tomar
Kata shatabar henechi
Agyanatar dhrira srinkhale
Khudra jibane bendhechi
Translation:
O my dearest Supreme,
O my beloved Supreme,
O my sweetest Supreme,
How many hundreds of times have I hurt You
Without any reason?
On the summit-pinnacle of ignorance-mountain
I have bound my little, insignificant life.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Flame-Roads’ songbook
3. Akashe Amar Batase Amar
Akashe amar batase amar ek ananta chetana
Hanibo nashibo nimeshe ajike dharanir ghana bedana
Translation:
My infinite consciousness-light
Pervades the sky and ether.
Today I shall strike and destroy in a twinkling
The world’s intense sufferings.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘One Thousand Lotus Petals, Part 2’ songbook
