Notuner Gaan (Bengali: নতুনের গান; "The Song of Youth"), more popularly known (after its first line) as Chol Chol Chol is the national march (Bengali: রণ-সঙ্গীত) of Bangladesh.,[1][2]
Chôlre nôojoan,
Shonre patiya kan
Mrrityu torôn duyare duyare
Jibôner ahban
Bhanggre bhangg agôl
Chôl re Chôl re Chôl..
Chôl Chôl Chôl
March, March, March
By a drum beat to a heavenly height
From earth beneath and soil's blight
Youth rise in the dawn's light,
Left, now, now, right!
March, March, March
Through dawn's door, a shattering blow
We will bring daybreak, scarlet in glow;
We will destroy the gloom of the night
And hindering mountain height,
The youngest of young, a song will sing;
From buried bones we raise the living;
We are the ones, new life will bring
With a new arm of might.
Soldier, take your stand,
A heartening ear now bend;
Doors that lead to death's portal,
A call to life extend!
Break all doors tight
and march, left and right!
March, March, March
Here are the rest of the original lyrics from which the National march of Bangladesh came (continuing from the last section):[6]
Urddhô adesh hanichhe baaj
Shôhidi-Eider senara saaj
Dike dike chôle kuch-kaôaj
Khôl re nid-môhôl
Kôbe se kheyali badshahi
Shei se ôtite ajô chahi
Jas musafir gaan gahi
Felis ôsrujôl
Jak re takht-taus
Jag re jag behush
Dubilô re dekh kôtô parôsshô
Kôtô rôm grik rush
Jagilô tara sôkôl
Jege ōth hinôbôl
Amra gôribo nôtun kôria
Dhulai tajmôhol
Chôl Chôl Chôl
On high the cry to charge is made,
the martyr's captain for battle's arrayed;
In every direction, a marching parade
roushing the drowsy from night.
When did that ancient kingdom vanish away?
We want that ancient age today.
The troubadours song, we will sing and play.
weep with all your might!
Shed now, the pompous throne Awaken,
O you heedless drone!
See how the Persian rule sank down,
and Russia and Greece and Rome.
They all awoke to fight;
You feeble, now ignite!
From the dust, we will build anew
the Taj Mahal! Unite!
Left. right, Left, right!
March, March, March
