mother mine, the frafrance from In Autumn, Oh
mother mine, What a quilt
have you spread at the feet of Oh mother mine,
words from your lips are like If sadness, Oh
mother mine, casts a gloom on your face, my ears are filled
with tears!
The national flag is bottle
green in colour and rectangle in size with length to width ratio of
10:6 bearing a red circle on the body of the green. The background
colour symbolizes the greenery of Bangladesh with its vitality and
youthness while the red disc represents the rising sun of
independence after the dark night of a blood drenched struggle.

Forever your skies, your air set my heart in tune
as if it were a flute.
your mango-groves makes me wild with joy--
Ah, what a thrill!
in the full-blossomed paddy fields,
I have seen spread all over--sweet smiles!
Ah, what a beauty, what shades, what an affection
and what a tenderness!
banyan trees and along the banks of rivers!
Necter to my ears!
Ah, what a thrill!
