Lyric as follows: Kandiya aakul hoilam bhabo-nodir pare mon tore ke ba par kore! Su-samay-e din guwaiya... asamay-e, mon, asamay-e ailam nodir pare; majhi tor nam janina, ami dak demu kare? mon tore ke ba par kore! Nao ase, Kheoani na re.. manush nai re pare; majhi tor nam janina, ami dak demu kare? mon tore ke ba par kore! [nao ase=The boat is there | Keoani nai re= there is no boatman]
the name of the singer is not Nirmalendu Chowdhury ... this etherial song is JUST a small idea of the sublime divinity of the folk maestro RANENDRA BALLABH ROY CHAWDHURY.
it is a matter of grief that not much recording of his is available. But, his only daughter SANCHITA ROY CHAWDHURY is performing his songs regularly.
Tolkyy His appearance is that of a Baul (Wandering bard of Bengal) - I think he is singing a Bengali Bhatiali Song (Boatman's song) - Excuse me if I am wrong!!

The motif of the boatman (majhi) is a recurring one in Bhatiyali (boatman's song) and represents like the "mon-er manush" of Baul a quest for the inner soul or union with god in the sufi/bhakti mystic tradition.
thanx... but what i really wanted was the the actual bangla words in using english alphabets... not the translation... cos i want to b able to sing with it
You know what? Although I'm Gujarati, and don't understand much Bengali [whether Sylheti/Assamese/ Shudo - hope I spelt that right lol], I really appreciate Baul music. This video is beautiful. The way it has been shot is so nice. The music alone sends me into adrift. Even though I may not understand the language, I have a real appreciation for it musically. Nuff respect Tania Dey for posting this video. Dunyabad...
1st heard this at a jibonmukhi convention.. unbelievable.. hunted the song down.. and then one day.. heard the " Akele Hum Nadiya Kinare " (even has a line - Majhi tora naam toh baata ) from raincoat.. hmm.. not a bad song, but.. I wish they'd stated the source.. So posted this to show the original.. Glad you liked it..
Now most film-makers and music composers are copy cat. Actually for quick money, too many mediocre people are in both the businesses, unlike old days. Strange that u have grown these interests at this age..:) now all ppl want is cheap entertainment... u can go thru my favorites...
aaahaaaaaaa....mon ta bhore gelo....thank u very much for uploading this song. Can you upload more bhatiali songs??

a rough english translation :
I came but at the wrong time,
to the river bank. oh heart!
Oh Boatman, I do not know,
what you are called.
who should I call then?
who shall take me across?
oh heart! for,Oh Boatman,
I do not know your name!

What about the song? Why does that make you cry?
I am thinking about a person long ago who used to sing that song.
He is dead, she said at length. He died when he was only seventeen. Isn't it a terrible thing to die so young as that?
