Bangladesh, Bangladesh
2
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
3
When the sun sinks in the west
4
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
5
The story of Bangladesh
6
Is an ancient one again made fresh
7
By blind men who carry out commands
8
Which flow out of the laws upon which nation stands
9
Which is to sacrifice a people for a land
10
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
11
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
12
When the sun sinks in the west
13
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
14
Once again we stand aside
15
And watch the families crucified
16
See a teenage mother's vacant eyes
17
As she watches her feeble baby try
18
To fight the monsoon rains and the cholera flies
19
And the students at the university
20
Asleep at night quite peacefully
21
The soldiers came and shot them in their beds
22
And terror took the dorm awakening shrieks of dread
23
And silent frozen forms and pillows drenched in red
24
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
25
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
26
When the sun sinks in the west
27
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
28
Did you read about the army officer's plea
29
For donor's blood? It was given willingly
30
By boys who took the needles in their veins
31
And from their bodies every drop of blood was drained
32
No time to comprehend and there was little pain
33
And so the story of Bangladesh
34
Is an ancient one again made fresh
35
By all who carry out commands
36
Which flow out of the laws upon which nations stand
37
Which say to sacrifice a people for a land
38
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
39
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
40
When the sun sinks in the west
41
Die a million people of the Bangladesh
