"Rang Matir Ronge" Song English Translation
The colors of Rangamati mesmerize my eyes
The songs of the Sampan boat sailors soothe my heart
Mystic beauty, magical sweet melody flows from which countryside?
It flows from Mayaboti (waterfall) & Madhumati (river) of Bangladesh.
O how the sun's rays touch upon the dew drops
Telling a happy story on the way... With a gentle breeze swaying away
Leaving you captivated, longing for more through the day…
Mystic beauty, magical sweet melody flows from which countryside?
It flows from Mayaboti (waterfall) & Madhumati(river)of Bangladesh.
And the smile of the flowers in the field
Fill me up with hopes of green
Fondly in love with the fiery red flowers
That leave you blinded to the touch..
Mystic beauty, magical sweet melody flows from which countryside?
It flows from Mayaboti (waterfall) & Madhumati (river) of Bangladesh.
"Ranga Matir Ronge" - Lyrics
Ranga matir ronge chokh juralo
Shampaan majhir gane mon bhoralo.
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
Ranga matir ronge chokh juralo
Shampaan majhir gane mon bhoralo.
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
instrumental...
O shey roder alo shishir chuea
Ekon khusheer kotha jaiy shuniyea
Ektu dola diye jay batashe
Mogno kore rakhe tar abeshe
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
Instrumental...
O shey roder alo shishir chuea
Ekon khusheer kotha jaiy shuniyea
Ektu dola diye jay batashe
Mogno kore rakhe tar abeshe
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
Ranga matir ronge chokh juralo
Shampaan majhir gane mon bhoralo.
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
Ruper modhu shurere jadu kon she deshe.
Mayaboti modhu motee Bangladeshe.
