by Rabindranath Tagore (1861 - 1941)

সমুখে শান্তিপারাবার
Language: Bangla (Bengali) 
সমুখে শান্তিপারাবার—
ভাসাও তরণী হে কর্ণধার ।
তুমি হবে চিরসাথি, লও লও হে ক্রোড় পাতি— 
অসীমের পথে জ্বলিবে জ্যোতি ধ্রুবতারকার ।।
মুক্তিদাতা, তোমার ক্ষমা তোমার দয়া
হবে চিরপাথেয় চিরযাত্রার ।
হয় যেন মর্তের বন্ধনক্ষয়, বিরাট বিশ্ব বাহু মেলি লয়— 
পায় অন্তরে নির্ভয় পরিচয় মহা-অজানার |

Note: a transliteration follows:

Samukhe shaantipaarabar -
Bhaasao taroni hey karnodhar.
Tumi hobe chirosaathi law law hey cror paati -
Asimer pathe jwolibe jyoti dhrubotaarokar.
Muktidaata tomar khama tomar daya
Habe chiropaatheyo chirojaatrar
Hay jeno marter bandhonkhay birat bishwa baahu meli lay -
Paai antore nirbhoy porichay maha-aajanar.
