She Je Boshe Ache / He is sitting away

She Je Boshe Ache is currently one of the most popular Bangladeshi song out there. Performed by Arnob aka Ornob (Bangla). It was the original song of the natok (Bengali drama) Off Beat starring the members of Black and Joya Ahsan (good song but unwatchable natok). I thought I'd do a translation of it.

Note: She je boshe ache, literally means he is sitting. But it can also be interpreted as he is sitting away, he is just sitting there, he is just sitting. Excuse my amature translations, as I often prefer to preserve the tone than do a literal translat

Ornob - She Je Boshe Ache (Off Beat OST) / Ornob - He is Sitting Away

shey je boshe aachhe eka eka / He is sitting alone
rongeen shopno taar bunte / To weave the thread of colorful dreams
shey je cheye aachhe bhoraa chokhe / He is looking away with teary eyes
jaanalaar phaake megh dhorte / To catch the clouds through the window

...... repeat ..........

taar goon goon moner gaan baatashe ore / The hummed songs of his mind is in the air
kaan paato mone paabe shuntey / If you listen with your heart you will hear it
taar ronger tulir naache megheraa chhote / The clouds dances away by his paint brush
chokh melo jodi paaro bujhte / Open your eyes if you can understand

...... repeat ..........

shey je boshe aachhe eka eka / He is sitting alone
taar shopner kaarkhaana cholche / The mill of his dreams continuing on
aar buro buro megheder dol / And all the gray clouds
brishti namaar taal toolchhe / Getting ready to become pouring rain

...... repeat ..........

shei goon goon moner gaan brishti namaae / That hummed song of the heart brings down the rain
top top photaa pore onekkhon / It falls for a long time
shei brishti bhejaa mone daak diyechhe / That moist heart called out
bhejaa kaak hoye thaak amaar mon / Let my mind be like a soaked bird (note: Bheja kak = literally means wet crow)

...... repeat ..........

(shey je boshe aachhe... ) / He is sitting away ..
(shey je boshe aachhe... ) / He is sitting away ..

...... repeat ..........
