We are all kings (Amra sabai raja)

A translation of  "Amra sabai raja amader ai rajar rajotte" by Rabindranath Thakur.

Original An English translation
Amra sabai raja amader ai rajar rajotte
Noile moder rajar sane milbo ki swatte

Amra ja khushi tai kori tabu tar khushitei chori
Amra noi badha noi daser rajar traser dasotte
Noile moder rajar sane milbo ki swatte

Raja sabore den man, se man aponi phire pan
Moder khato kare rakhe ni keu kono asatye
Noile moder rajar sane milbo ki swatte

Amra chalbo apon mate seshe milbi tari pathe
Mora morbo na keu biphalater bisham aborte
Noile moder rajar sane milbo ki swatte
We are all kings in our King's king-dom.
How else can we be able, to be one with Him.

What we wish, we do, but we're guided by Him.
We're not bound, nor slaves in a slave king-dom
How else can we be able, to be one with Him.

The King honours us all, an honour that we return.
We are not be-littled by any type of lies.
How else can we be able, to be one with Him.

We'll choose our own path; then meet on His path
None of us will die, of failure's fearful whirl
How else can we be able, to be one with Him.
