Hello! My partner is Bangladeshi and going to graduate college soon. I want to surprise him with something that is meaningful and found out I can order customized ties! I wanted to write a Tagore quote on it in his mother tongue but realized I haven’t learned enough Bangla to know Tagore’s poetry :(

This is the quote I have in mind:
I slept and dreamt
that life was joy.
I awoke and saw
that life was duty.
I worked — and behold,
duty was joy.

If anyone has the original verse in Bangla and is willing to share, I will appreciate it so so much! If you have a better quote in mind, I’m all ears :)

ধন্যবাদ 🙏
