Lyrics:
1. Kandte Habe Shishur Mato
Kandte habe shishur mato
Jani kandte habe
Pira dayi pather bhoja
Agyanatar bhabe
Translation:
Like a child I must cry,
Like a child,In this torturing, heavily loaded,
Ignorance-flooded world.

Like a child I must cry,
Like a child,
In this torturing, heavily loaded,
Ignorance-flooded world.
