   (Khasar vitor ochin pakhi
   kemone aashe jay
   Tare dhorte parle mon bedi,
   dhorte parle mon bedi
   Ditam pakhir pay
   kemone aashe jay
   Khasar vitor ochin pakhi
   kemone aashe jay)

   The unknown Bird in the cage…
   how does it fly in and out?
   Catch it, I would, if I could…
   and put my mind’s chains on its feet.

   (Aaath kuthuri noy dorja aata
   moddhe moddhe jhorka kata
   tar upore shodor kutha
   tar upore shodor kutha
   aayna mohol tay
   kemone aashe jay
   Khasar vitor ochin pakhi
   kemone aashe jay)

   There are eight rooms with nine doors,
   with latice-work in between.
   On top of that, there’ s a central yard
   and a hall of mirrors.

   The unknown Bird in the cage…
   how does it fly in and out?

   (kopaler fer noile ki aar
   Pakhitir emon bebohar
   khacha venge pakhi amar
   khacha venge pakhi amar kun khane palay
   kemone aashe jay
   Khasar vitor ochin pakhi
   kemone aashe jay)

   The Bird wouldn’t behave so,
   had it not been for my ill-luck.
   It has broken through its Cage
   and flown away somewhere….

   The unknown Bird in the cage…
   how does it fly in and out?

   (Mon roili tui khachar aashe
   Khacha je tar kacha basher
   Kun din khacha podbe khoshe
   Kun din khacha podbe khoshe
   Fokir lalon kede koy
   kemone aashe jay
   Khasar vitor ochin pakhi
   kemone aashe jay)

   O Mind, you have lived with high hopes,
   but your Cage is made of raw bamboo.
   One day this Cage (too) will fall and break.
   Lalon says, “The door ‘s ajar, the Bird’s flown!”
