Amake Amaar Moto Thakte Dao

Recently this song has become very popular in Kolkata. The imageries that go with the lyrics are superb. Cant possibly explain the same in English, but I still tried to translate the song into English in Angrezi...leaving out the effective essense. But it was that or nothing....

Let me be the way I am
I have set myself the way I need to be
All I couldn’t have ..is best that way
That’s why I have reason to live

That twilight zone in your world hits me
Like brightness through crushed stained glass
If you want to fly let yourself go
I wont look for you again

There is a bit of chaos in life right now
Amidst that I try to write a new story
I need to cut away all that clung on
So I try and I try

Suddenly if love pours down
Like streaming life in the light of dawn
You can look for me with misty eyes
You will find that I am gone

Try not to light a lamp for me
I am lost in the patterns of humanity
I am finding my way again through the wall
Looking for a way to break it down

All the dreams that run through your blood
Are restless , are random and fast
When you take a pause just consider
When this dream slipped through your fingers

I want to miss the symphony of your life
Fade away like the ripples it caused
Never again will I go with your flow
I like this anonymity
