As a drowning man catches at a straw,
Your love for me though,
Is my ultimate means to breathe, to live,
A force like the west wind that makes me strive.
...
মনে পড়ে তোমায়,
সকাল, দুপুর সন্ধ্যায়,
জড়ালে এ কি মায়ায়,
একা থাকা যে বড় দায়।

Opposed Emperor Claudius II, the Roman, Saint Valentine,
The former considered marriage of young men as improper,
Thinking that single man would make better soldier,
Than those with wives and kin.
...
Come you, the beginning of a dawn new,
Ready we are to receive you,
With Rabindranath's immortal lyrics,
And the verses of Nazrul that everyone seeks.
