এলো রে এলো রে মেলা, দেখরে কালীর খেলা!

Elo re elo re mela, dekhre Kalir khela!

The festival has come, see Kali's play!

আঁধার চিরে আলো জ্বলে, মাতলো রে এই

Andhar chire alo jwole, matlo re ei bela!

Light shines through the darkness, this time is ecstatic!

বোল রে ভাই জয় কালী! জয় জয় মহাকালী!

Bol re bhai Joy Kali! Joy Joy Mahakali!

Say, brother, Jai Kali! Jai Jai Mahakali!

হাততালি দে, পা মিলা রে, বাজবে এবার তালি!

Hattali de, pa mila re, bajbe ebar tali!

Clap your hands, match your steps, the rhythm will now play!

জয় কালী! জয় কালী! জয় মহাকালী!

Joy Kali! Joy Kali! Joy Mahakali!

Jai Kali! Jai Kali! Jai Mahakali!

গলায় দোলে মুণ্ডমালা, হাতে খড়্গ জ্বলে,

Golay dole mundomala, hate khorgo jwole,

A garland of skulls around her neck, a khadga glows in her hand,

চারিদিকে আলোর রোশনাই, ঢাকের আওয়াজ তুলে!

Charidike alor roshonai, dhaker awaj tule!

Light all around, with the sound of drums!

ডিজের তালে নাচবে পাড়া, কাঁপবে এবার বুক,

Dijer tale nachbe para, kampbe ebar buk,

The neighborhood will dance to the DJ's beat, hearts will now tremble,

মায়ের নামে মাতোয়ারা, ঘুচবে সবার দুখ!

Mayer name matowara, ghuchbe shobar dukh!

Intoxicated in Mother's name, everyone's sorrow will vanish!

শ্যামা মা এসেছে ঘরে, ভয় কি রে আর মনে?

Shyama Ma esheche ghore, bhoy ki re ar mone?

Shyama Ma has come home, why fear anymore in your mind?

নৃত্য করো, উল্লাস করো, ডিজে গানের সনে!

Nritya koro, ullash koro, Dije ganer shone!

Dance, rejoice, with the DJ's song!

এলো রে এলো রে মেলা, দেখরে কালীর খেলা!

Elo re elo re mela, dekhre Kalir khela!

The festival has come, see Kali's play!

আঁধার চিরে আলো জ্বলে, মাতলো রে এই বেলা!

Andhar chire alo jwole, matlo re ei bela!

Light shines through the darkness, this time is ecstatic!

বোল রে ভাই জয় কালী! জয় জয় মহাকালী!

Bol re bhai Joy Kali! Joy Joy Mahakali!

Say, brother, Jai Kali! Jai Jai Mahakali!

জয় কালী! জয় কালী! জয় মহাকালী!

Joy Kali! Joy Kali! Joy Mahakali!

Jai Kali! Jai Kali! Jai Mahakali!

মাগো তুমি দয়াময়ী, মাগো তুমি কালী,

Mago tumi doyamoyi, mago tumi Kali,

Mother, you are merciful, Mother, you are Kali,

সারা পাড়া মেতেছে আজ, বাজিয়ে জোরে তালি!

Sara para meteche aj, bajiye jore tali!

The whole neighborhood is celebrating today, clapping loudly!

জয় কালী!

Joy Kali!

Jai Kali!

জয় মহাকালি

Joy Mahakali!

Jai Mahakali!
