Lyrics:
1. Charan Pheligo Jiban Chhande
Charan pheligo jiban chhande
Nachiya uthichhe pran
Jagater dhuli mahiyan kari
Swarge karigo mlan
Prabhur kripai ananda sathi
Ananta abhijan
Translation:
I am walking along the road of ecstasy.
My life has grown into
The delight of Cosmic Dance.
I have transformed
Even the meaningless dust of earth
Into the heights of God-Glory.
Behold! Heaven’s Beauty and Light
Are no match for my achievements
Sweetly here on earth.
My eternity’s companion
Is my Lord’s Existence-Delight.
Composed on April 12th, 1976
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘One Thousand Lotus Petals, Part 1’ songbook
2. Charan Tale Asan Pele (1)
Charan tale asan pele
Kichui ami chahibona
Rahibo cheye tomar pane
Ar kabhu ma kandibona
Translation:
Out of Your infinite Compassion
If you allow me to sit at Your Feet
Then I shall not ask for anything else
In this lifetime,
And my heart’s pangs
Will cease once and for all.
Composed on May 12th, 1976
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, Part 7’ songbook
3. Cheyechhilam Kabi Hate
Cheyechhilam kabi hate
Karle amai rishi kabi
Cheyechhilam jogi hate
Karle amai abatar
Cheyechhilam bhera hate
Karle amai singharaj
Cheyechhilam pada dhuli
Dile amai tomar mala
Tomar mukut tomar singhasan
Translation:
I wanted to become just a poet,
But You have made me a Seer-Poet.
I wanted to become a Yogi,
But You have made me an Avatar.
I wanted to become Your lamb,
But You have made me Your lion-king.
I desired the dust of Your Feet,
But You gave me Your Victory-Garland,
Your Crown and Your Throne.
Composed on January 5th, 1999
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Kalpana Rath — Imagination Chariot’ songbook
4. Chinta Sagare Dubi Ar Mari Tabu Je
Chinta sagare dubi ar mari
Tabu je tomai nahi ami smari
– Sri Chinmoy, ‘Journey’s Goal, Part 10b’ songbook
