মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
পড়ছে কেন বিনা মেঘেই বাজ
পদ্য লেখা আমার তো নয় কাজ
চাইছি দিনে অল্প দেখা তোর
পাল্টে দিতে আমার গল্পের মোড়
ও মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
ইচ্ছে করে একটা ঘরে থাকবো দু′জনায়
গড়বো ভিটে খুশির ইটে, সঙ্গী হবি আয়
কলের পাড়ে জলের ধারা, ঘরের 'পরে তুই
চারটে হাতে খেলনা পাতে একজোড়া চড়ুই
সে ভাবনারা চোখ খোলে না
ও মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
রোজ বিকেলে আতর ঢেলে তোকে সাজাবোই
মেলায় যাবো রিক্সা চড়ে, বসবি পাশে তুই
বন্দি আছে হাজার আশা বুকের মাঝে দেখ
একটু চিনে নিলেই হবো দু′জন মিলে এক
তবু স্বপ্নেরা মুখ তোলে না
ও মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
পড়ছে কেন বিনা মেঘেই বাজ
পদ্য লেখা আমার তো নয় কাজ
চাইছি দিনে অল্প দেখা তোর
পাল্টে দিতে আমার গল্পের মোড়
কিছুতেই উপায় মেলে না
ও মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না, বোঝে না
মন বোঝে না, বোঝে না
The song “Mon Bojhe Na” by Arijit Singh is about unrequited love and the confusion and frustration that come with it. The lyrics describe the singer’s futile attempts to gain the attention and affection of their love interest. Despite writing poetry and dreaming of a future together, the singer realizes that their feelings are not reciprocated and there is nothing that can be done to change this. The repeated refrain of “Mon Bojhe Na” emphasizes the singer’s inability to understand what they have done wrong or what can be done to make their love interest notice them.
The first stanza talks about how the singer is surprised that music is still playing even though there are no clouds in the sky. They mention that writing poetry is not their job but they still continue to do it, hoping for a chance to see their love interest. However, changing the direction of their story is something they are unable to do.
In the second stanza, the singer talks about their wish to build a house with their love interest and live there happily. They imagine the sound of water flowing nearby and holding hands by the fireplace. They also mention that some people do not have the ability to see those desires in their eyes or read the signals.
In the final stanza, they sing about how they will dress up and go out, hoping to secretly capture the attention of their love interest. They mention the hope of finding a way to reconcile their dreams with reality. However, even after all these efforts, the singer realizes that it is futile and they will never be able to make their love interest understand their feelings.
Overall, the song captures the frustration, helplessness, and desolation one feels when their love is not reciprocated.
