Lyrics:

1. Ami Tomar Phul Tumi Amar Kul

Ami tomar phul tumi amar kul
Ami tomar dhenu tumi amar benu
Ami tomar gan tumi amar pran
Ami tomar khama tumi amar rama

Translation:

I am Your flower; You are my Shore,
     Golden Shore.
I am Your divine cow; You are my Flute,
     Divine Flute.
I am Your song, celestial song; You are my Life,
     Eternal Life.
I am Your forgiveness; You are my Beauty,
     Inner Beauty.

– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Garden of Love-Light, part 2’ songbook


2. Amito Tomare Dakina Chahina

Amito tomare dakina chahina
Tabu kena more dakicho
Amito tomare dibona amai
Tabu kena bhalobasicho
Jani ami jani taba kripa ankhi
Khamibe amar amire
Tabu kena hai nirabadhi rahi
Moher nishar gabhire

Translation:

I do not need You.
Yet, why do You need me?
You know well that I shall not surrender
  my earth-existence to You.
Yet, why do You love me?
I know Your Compassion-Eye.
You forgive my little ‘i’. Alas, why do I always remain in the heart
  of blind darkness-night?

– Sri Chinmoy, ‘One Thousand Lotus Petals, Part 1’ songbook


3. Amrita Kutir Shantir Nir

Amrita kutir shantir nir
Dakiche amai gopane
Ma Alo Devir anadi gabhir
Nachiche amiya nayane
Andhar nishar timir prachir
Hanibo nimeshe nashibo
Bandhibo amar jiban maran
Bhibhur charane bandhibo

– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Consciousness-Sky’ songbook
