Ekla Chalo Re

I love this song.
Robindra Sangeet -- Ekla Chalo Re
Jodi tor đak shune keu na ashe tôbe êkla chôlo re,Êkla chôlo, êkla chôlo, êkla chôlo, êkla chôlo re.
Jodi keu kôtha na kôe, ore ore o ôbhaga,Jodi shôbai thake mukh firaee shôbai kôre bhôe---Tôbe pôran khuleO tui mukh fuţe tor moner kôtha êkla bôlo re.
Jodi shôbai fire jae, ore ore o ôbhaga,Jodi gôhon pôthe jabar kale keu fire na chae---Tôbe pôther kãţaO tui rôktomakha chôrontôle êkla dôlo re.
Jodi alo na dhôre, ore ore o ôbhaga,Jodi jhôŗ-badole ãdhar rate duar dêe ghôre---Tôbe bojranôleApon buker pãjor jalie nie êkla jôlo re.
Tagore's English translation
If they answer not to thy call walk alone,If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,O thou of evil luck,open thy mind and speak out alone.
If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,O thou of evil luck,trample the thorns under thy tread,and along the blood-lined track travel alone.
If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,O thou of evil luck,with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heartand let it burn alone.
