Guys, can i find English translation for this song?

Uhuh

here it is

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ekla_Chalo_Re

I used to hear this song all the time in my stay at rajasthan.

My mom used to work in the sri arabindo ashram school and I studied there when I was 4-5 years of age.

Her colleagues were almost all bengali and when ever they got together and had fun this was a must song.

then I moved to delhi but yeah brings back Old forgotten memories.

Suchi you posted another song, the ekla chalo song is different. Here is the video:
[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWUKgfEg3H0&feature=relatedHERE[/YOUTUBE]

And here is the translation:

If they answer not to thy call walk alone,

If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall,

O thou unlucky one,

open thy mind and speak out alone.

If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness,

O thou unlucky one,

trample the thorns under thy tread,

and along the blood-lined track travel alone.

If they do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm,; O thou unlucky one,; with the thunder flame of pain ignite thy own heart; and let it burn alone.

Can imagine the impact of this song during the swadeshi movement👏
