Lyrics

Roman script

Tomrá já khushi tái balo
Ámár ná thámiyá calá
Ná thámiyá calá ámár
Ná káṋdiyá balá

Rúpor meghe bhará ákásh
Kásher rauṋe dulche vátás
Shiuli d́hele dicche suvás
Shishire utalá

Khuṋjchi járe páine táre
Seo jáni khuṋjche more
Ámár gáne geṋtheche se
Chot́t́a ekt́i málá

Bengali script

তোমরা যা' খুশি তাই বলো
আমার না-থামিয়া চলা
না-থামিয়া চলা আমার
না কাঁদিয়া বলা

রূপোর মেঘে ভরা আকাশ
কাশের রঙে দুলছে বাতাস
শিউলি ঢেলে দিচ্ছে সুবাস
শিশিরে উতলা

খুঁজছি যারে পাইনে তারে
সেও জানি খুঁজছে মোরে
আমার গানে গেঁথেছে সে
ছোট্ট একটি মালা

Translation

Say anything that you please,
I will proceed relentlessly.
Relentlessly will I proceed,
No wailing when I speak.

The sky is filled with clouds of silver,
And the air sways with kans colors.
The night jasmine strew perfume,
Excited by the dew.

I do not find the One I seek,
But I know He also looks for me.
With my songs He is threading
One garland very tiny.

Purport

This is how Sarkar himself described the meaning of the song—[4]

You may say whatever you like, but you must know that mine is a pauseless march. I go ahead without pause. And whatever I say, I say straightforwardly and without any sentiment. I am always, under all circumstances, outspoken. In all directions, nature is bountiful and beautiful, full of love and full of melody. And, amidst this natural beauty, I am simple and straightforward. There is no curvature in me. I am in search of a particular personality, and I know that personality is also in search of me. And I also know that these tiny songs of mine have been accumulated by Him. He is preparing a garland out of my songs.
