Aji mamo mon chahe · Gitabitan

আজি মম মন  চাহে  জীবনবন্ধুরে,

            সেই  জনমে মরণে  নিত্যসঙ্গী

               নিশিদিন  সুখে শোকে–

                  সেই  চির-আনন্দ, বিমল  চিরসুধা,

                  যুগে  যুগে কত নব নব  লোকে  নিয়তশরণ।

          পরাশান্তি,পরমপ্রেম,          পরামুক্তি, পরমক্ষেম,

               সেই  অন্তরতম  চিরসুন্দর  প্রভু, চিত্তসখা,

                ধর্ম-অর্থ-কাম-ভরণ রাজা হৃদয়হরণ॥

English

Today my heart pines for my lifelong friend.
my one steadfast companion
who ever stands by me
day and night,
in weal and in woe,
in life and in death.
Joy perennial, bliss inexhaustible,
He is the firm and constant refuge
of every age and every clime.
Peace abounding, love limitless,
saviour supreme, great in His goodness,
He is the soul of my soul,
my mind’s intimate,
my gracious roaster of all times
providing me with whatever
my body, mind and spirit crave.
He is the king
to whom ray heart is held a hostage.
