Notes:
This song was written on 17th April, 1923 at Shantiniketan.
Around the beginning of the year 1923 an English lady from Calcutta took the job of training girls to form a branch of the Girl’s Guide, an associate of the Boys’ Scout at Shantiniketan. In order to encourage the girls this song was written and composed by Rabindranath. This team was at first named 'Grihadeep' and then it was changed to 'Sahayika'. Girls of the Guide had to take oath in the name of The King, a custom which was vehemently opposed by Rabindranath and as a result soon this branch was detached from its parent organization. This song has been included in the drama "Grihaprabesh". It is also used at the time of inauguration 'lamp lighting' at annual convocation of Sriniketan.

Ognishikha, eso eso, aano aano aalo. Dukkhe sukhe ghare ghare grihodip jwaalo. Aano shokti, aano dipti, aano shaanti, ano tripti, Aano snigdho bhaalobasa, aano nityo bhaalo. Eso punyopatho beye eso hey kolyani - Subho supti, subho jaagorano deho aani. Dukkho raate maatribeshe jege thaako nirnimeshe Aanondo-utsabe tabo subhro haasi dhaalo.
