Gaane Gaane - Dhumketu

Read Lyrics English Translation

GAAN-E GAAN-E JODI AMAR MONER KOTHA

If the words of my heart reach you through songs

TOMAR MONER KACHHE POUCHHE JAAY

If they somehow touch your heart

HOTE PAARE EI KHOLA AKASHE EKA SHE

Maybe beneath this open sky, someone alone

PASHAPASHI BOSHTE CHAY

Wants to sit beside you

AR BESHI KICHU ASHA KORO NA

Don’t expect anything more

AR BESHI BHALO BASHA KORO NA

Don’t love me too much either

GAAN-E GAANE JODI AMAR MONER KOTHA

If the words of my heart through music

TOMAR MONER KACHHE POUCHHE JAAY

Reach the heart within you

AAJKE BOLBE KAALKE DEKHA

Today you’ll say, “Let’s meet tomorrow”

KAALKE BOLBE POROSHU DEKHA

Tomorrow you’ll say, “Let’s meet the day after”

POROSHU BOLBE BHULE GECHHI JAA

And the day after, you’ll say, “Oh, I forgot”

HO SOBI JOKHON GECHHO BUJHE

When you’ve already understood everything

NAO NA NIJER JOBAB KHUJHE

Then take time and find your own answers

JAO NA BABA AR TO PARI NA

Please go now, I can't take this anymore

EI DEKHO AAJ BIKEL’ER GAAYE

Look, today’s afternoon carries

SHONA LEGE AACHHE GHURO GHURO

A golden hue swirling around

MEGH-ER AANAGONA

Clouds coming and going

TUMI KENO KICHU DEKHEO DEKHCHHO NA

Why do you see everything, yet see nothing?

EI DU-PASHER PAHAAR JAANE

These mountains on both sides know

AMAR BHALOBASHAR MAANE

What my love truly means

TUMI SHUDHU ERIYE GELE ROJ

Yet you always turn away, every day

O HOTEY PAARE SHOTYI KOTHA

Maybe all of this is actually true

ESHOB BOLEI KHACCHO MATHA

And still, you’re overthinking it

AMAR MONER AAR NIO NA KHOJ

Stop searching through my heart now

HUM EI DEKHO AMI SHOB RONG PHELE DIYE

Look at me, I’ve let go of all my own colors

TOMAR RONGEI SHUDHU BHULE GECHHI DIN GONA

Got so lost in your colors, I forgot how to count days

TUMI KENO KICHU BUJHE-O BUJHO NA

Why do you understand everything, yet act like you don’t?

GAAN-E GAAN-E JODI TOMAR MONER KOTHA

If your heart’s feelings come to me through songs

AMAR MONER KACHHE POUCHHE JAAY

And reach my heart through melody

HOTE PAARE EI KHOLA AKASHE EKA SHE

Then maybe, under this vast sky, the lonely one

PASHAPASHI BOSHTE CHAY

Simply wants to sit beside me

ER BESHI KICHU ASHA KORI NA

I don’t hope for anything more than this

TOMAR GAANER BHASHA PORI NA

I don’t even understand the language of your songs

ER BESHI KICHU ASHA KORI NA

I truly don’t ask for more than this

TOMAR GAANER BHASHA PORI NA

I don’t understand the language of your song

GAAN-E GAAN-E JODI… HUM… HUM…

If through music, through humming…
