NSPIRATIONAL SONG
A great inspirational song from the greatest Indian poet. It exhorts the listener to continue his or her journey, despite disinterest, ridicule, insult, and abandonment from others.

The last two stanzas in English have been added by me.

WIKI-BENGALI
For Bengali karaoke in Roman script, Wiki-Bengali is preferable because of the huge influence of the Wikipedia and the Internet. It is phonetic and easy to learn.

LYRICS- BENGALI
যদি তোর ডাক শুনে কেউ না আসে তবে একলা চলো রে।
একলা চলো, একলা চলো, একলা চলো, একলা চলো রে॥
যদি কেউ কথা না কয়, ওরে ওরে ও অভাগা,
যদি সবাই থাকে মুখ ফিরায়ে সবাই করে ভয়—
তবে পরান খুলে
ও তুই মুখ ফুটে তোর মনের কথা একলা বলো রে॥
যদি সবাই ফিরে যায়, ওরে ওরে ও অভাগা,
যদি গহন পথে যাবার কালে কেউ ফিরে না চায়—
তবে পথের কাঁটা
ও তুই রক্তমাখা চরণতলে একলা দলো রে॥
যদি আলো না ধরে ওরে ওরে ও অভাগা,
আলো না ধরে যদি ঝর বাদলে আঁধার রাতে দুয়ার ধেয়ে ঘরে-
তবে বজ্রানলে আপন বুকের পাঁজর জ্বালিয়ে একলা জ্বলো রে।।

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

If they answer not to thy call walk alone,
If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,
O thou unlucky one, open thy mind and speak out alone.

If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,
O thou unlucky one, 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 unlucky one,
with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heart and let it burn alone.
