Mashi, pishi, ghoomparani
Mashi, pishi, ghoomparani
Aunties, Aunties, Put Us to Sleep
Lullaby
Lullaby
(Bengali)
(English)
Mashi, pishi
Ghoomparani
Moder bari esho
Khat nai, palong nai
Bachar khate bosho
Bata bora pan debo
Ghal bore kheo
Bachar chokeh ghoom nai
Ghoom deye jao.
Aunties, aunties
Put us to sleep
Come over to the house.
I have no bed, no mattress
Sit on the child's bed
I'll give you pan*
Eat your fill.
There's no sleep in the children's eyes
Put them to sleep before you go.
