Shashi Kumar Ghosh

Music and words by Sri Chinmoy

 

Lyrics:

Shashi Kumar Shashi Kumar
Shashi Kumar Ghosh
Shanta nayan bishal hiya 
Nitya paritosh 
Taba sata barshiki aj 
Paramanande saj ar baj 
Ekadhare tumi guru gambhir 
Shakti sadhak karuna sheha nir 
Langhi moru langhi pahar 
Durbar manush dosh

Translation:

Shashi Kumar, Shashi Kumar,
Shashi Kumar Ghosh —
Tranquillity-eyes, vastness-heart
Always in satisfaction-light.
Today we celebrate a hundred springs
From the core of your Eternal Life
With stupendous sound-life
And auspicious silence-soul.
In one form you are a power-worshipper
Immensely self-poised in your central being
And a compassion and affection-flooded nest,
Covering the desert-vast
And transcending the mountain-foibles
Of your feeble fellow travellers and compeers
Here on earth


Music published in My Indian Sunrise
Translation published in My Father Shashi Kumar Ghosh: Affection-Life, Compassion-Heart, Illumination-Mind
