Lyrics:
1. Ami Gahi Gan Tumi Gaha Bale
Ami gahi gan tumi gaha bale
Tumi haso bale hasi
Banshari bajao hriday gabhire
Taito hayechhi banshi
Tumi je amar ami je tomar
Ei mor parichoy
Eka dhare tumi janaka janani
Chinmoyi chinmoy
Translation:
I sing because You sing.
I smile because You smile.
Because You play on the flute,
I have become Your flute.
You play in the depths of my heart.
You are mine, I am Yours.
This is my sole identification.
In one form You are my Mother and Father eternal
And Consciousness-Moon,
Consciousness-Sun all-pervading.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Garden of Love-Light, part 1’ songbook
2. Ami Habo Hiya Jogi
Ami habo hiya jogi
Paramananda magi
Nahi habo ama bhogi
Nahi habo kabhu rogi
Translation:
I shall be the Yogi of my heart.
I implore transcendental Delight.
No longer shall I enjoy ignorance.
No more shall I be subject to earthly ailments.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Journey’s Goal, Part 11b’ songbook
3. Ami Herite Chai Amar Swarup
Ami herite chai amar swarup
Nitya sakal prane
Sakal bhalobasa amar
Chaluk tomar pane
Translation:
I want to see my soul-form
Every day in all human souls.
May my life of heart-love
Flow toward You alone
O my Father, Beloved Supreme.
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Supreme, Teach Me How to Surrender’ songbook
