We provide the meaning of Tagore songs in English on the basis of visitor's request. Translating a Tagore song is very difficult, hope you will agree. We provide this service according to our capability, feelings and knowledge which may differ with others. We do not wish to claim these as serious translations as the site has its focus on the better reproduction of the songs. Translations of regional feelings are never an easy proposition, that too in the form of a verse. Hence we chose to go for a form that is adaptable and equally lucid to the viewers across the globe. We give additional explanations for the typical Indian and Bengali words that may cause confusion. We even attach images where words are found insufficient. The language is deliberately kept as uncomplicated as possible. This service is absolutely free for all.

When my foot steps will not be printed on this road, I shall not be there to row my little boat across this pier, All businesses closed, I would repay all my debts, Cease to visit this village market-place – One may choose not to remember me – May not recall me gazing up the sky. Dust would cover the strings of my lute, Thorny bushes take over the doorways of my apartment, Wow! My flower garden would put on wild robes, Algae should infest the banks of the pond – One may choose not to remember me – May not recall me gazing up the sky. Well, the flute will sound as it does now, As it sounds at the central arena of the village, Days will pass as it does forever, Wow! Boats will be loaded from each pier, Cattle will graze, shephards will play in the field, One may choose not to remember me – May not recall me gazing up the sky. Who is not sure, dear, to find me on the morning. It is me, who would take part in each game, Wow! A new name for me, A new pair of hands to surround my neck I shall continue to come and go, that is me as ever. One may choose not to remember me – May not recall me gazing up the sky. - Translated by Anjan Ganguly
When my steps will fall on this path no more, Then will I stop rowing my boat to the shore, I will end my trades and settle my debts My visit will cease to the market place Remember me not then, beloved Call not for me from those distant stars. When dust will collect on this harp of mine When the doors will hide behind the thorny vine, The garden, the garb of the weeds will wear And moss will cover the banks of the mere Remember me not then, beloved Call not for me from those distant stars. The same melody the flute will play The days will course in the unchanged way Boats will be laden from the same pier, Shepherds will frolic, And cattle will graze in the same manner Remember me not then, beloved Call not for me from those distant stars. Who is it that says I am not there that morning? You will call me by a new name, I will be there to join in every game You will encircle me with renewed ties And I will come and go as usual – the eternal I Remember me not then, beloved Call not for me from those distant stars. - Translated by Ratna De
