Sea Fever – Lesson 6 -Bengali meaning line by line- Class 10

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky, 

আমি অবশ্যই আবার সমুদ্রে যাব, নিঃসঙ্গ সমুদ্র এবং আকাশে,

And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;

এবং আমার চাই শুধুমাত্র একটি লম্বা জাহাজ এবং তাকে চালিত করার জন্য একটি তারা;

And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking,

এবং চাকার ধাক্কা এবং বাতাসের গান এবং সাদা পালের কাঁপুনি,

And a grey mist on the sea’s face, and a grey dawn breaking. 

এবং সমুদ্রের মুখের উপর এক ধূসর কুয়াশা, এবং একটি ধূসর ভোরের সূচনা।

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide

আমি অবশ্যই আবার সমুদ্রে যাব, ছুটন্ত স্রোতের ডাকে

Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied; 

এ এক পাগল করা ডাক এবং একটি পরিষ্কার ডাক যা অস্বীকার করা যায় না;

And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,

এবং আমি শুধু চাই সাদা মেঘের সাথে একটা ঝোড়ো দিন,

And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

এবং ভাসমান জলকণা এবং ফুলে ওঠা ফেনা, এবংশঙ্খচিলের ডাক।

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,

আমি অবশ্যই আবার সমুদ্রে যাব, ভবঘুরে যাযাবর জীবনে,

To the gull’s way and the whale’s way where the wind’s like a whetted knife;

শঙ্খচিলের পথে এবং তিমির পথে যেখানে বাতাস শাণিত ছুরির মতো;

And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover, 

এবং আমি শুধু শুনতে চাই একটি মজার গাঁজাখুরি গল্প, উল্লসিত সঙ্গী নাবিকের কাছ থেকে,

And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over. 

এবং দীর্ঘ যাত্রা শেষে একটি শান্ত ঘুম এবং একটি মিষ্টি স্বপ্ন।
