ekla cholo re

Beautiful lyrics:
Jodi tor đak shune keu na ashe tôbe êkla chôlo re

"If they answer not to thy call walk alone "

A very nice harmonica rendering:


Complete 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 heart
and let it burn alone.
