Jakhan bhávi cine gechi
Buddhir bale sab bujhechi
Ághát hene sauṋgopane
Bojháo ajiṋatá ámáy (tumi)

Jakhan bhávi peye gechi
Arther bale sab kinechi
(Tumi) Amúlya mańi dekhiye
Bojháo diinatá ámáy (tumi)

(তোমারে) চিনেও চেনা দায়

যখন ভাবি চিনে’ গেছি
বুদ্ধির বলে সব বুঝেছি
আঘাত হেনে’ সঙ্গোপনে
বোঝাও অজ্ঞতা আমায় (তুমি)

যখন ভাবি পেয়ে’ গেছি
অর্থের বলে সব কিনেছি
(তুমি) অমূল্য মণি দেখিয়ে
বোঝাও দীনতা আমায় (তুমি)

Needed is knowledge even after knowing Thee.

When I think that I've perceived–
By strength of brain grasped everything–
Then slapping me down privately,
You make me see my stupidity.

When I think that I've acquired–
Bought everything with riches mine–
Then showing a gem beyond price,
My poverty You make me realize.
