Notes: Composed on 10th July 1893 at Sajadpur.
In a letter from Sajadpur Rabindranath has written to Indira Devi at Shimla on 10th of July 1893 -
... You must have received my songs. The tune of the song Baro bedonar mato ... is perhaps not a charming one. ... These songs are to be sung in solitude. The tune, I believe, is not particularly a bad one, it doesn't seem to be an exaggeration either to accept it as a nice one. I had entuned it gradually in the bathroom - it is rather advantageous to compose in a bathroom. First of all it is lonesome, secondly free from other responsibilities - it doesn't harm your sense of duty of you keep on murmuring for five minutes after the first splash - the best part of it is that you are free to make faces as there isn't any scope for an audience. The state of mind for better compositions is never easy to reach unless faces are made. It is not all about reasoning - kind of craziness it is. I always sing this song, I had murmured it in the morning for a long time today. This song generates a strong emotional feeling while doing so. It is hence one of my favourite songs undoubtedly. I enjoy singing alone this song delightedly and in a sedate manner and the life, the reality - sunlit yet engulfed with vapours of tears, appears like a mystic and colourful rainbow - all pragmatic affairs are translated to perpetual beauty, poignance is converted into radiance.
The date written on and the date of the letter to Indira Devi seems dubious.

Baro bedonar moto bejechho tumi hey aamar praane, Mono je kemono kare mone mone taaha mon-i jaane. Tomare hridaye kore aachi nishidino dhore, Cheye thaaki aankhi bhore mukhero paane. Baro aasha, baro trisha, baro akinchano tomari laagi. Baro sukhe, baro dukhe, baro anurage royechhi jaagi. E janmer mato aar hoye gechhe ja habar, Bhese gechhe mono praano marono taane.
