The unknown traveler has come after so many ages,
With the sweet call of consciousness.
My life is filled with songs.

In the pangs of losing everything,
In the emptiness of complete oblivion,
In the rhythm and song of supreme fulfillment,
In the invocation of the eternally beautiful,
In the invocation
My life became filled with songs.

Translated from Bengali
