Jai Jagannath.

Nila shaila basi, mo nayanara phula, Dekhibaku mana mora aja bahu chula. Odi re prabhu, odi re thakura, odi. odi odi utkalantha lyrics in english

Odi odi, Utkalantha odi, Odi re prabhu, odi re thakura, odi. Nila shaila prabhu, tume odi. Odi odi, Utkalantha odi. Jai Jagannath

Legend says the song describes the mood of Lord Jagannath himself during the Hera Panchami ritual of the (Chariot Festival). After the three deities—Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra—travel from the Main Temple to the Gundicha Temple (their "aunt's home"), Lord Jagannath grows homesick for his beloved abode, the Nilachala (the Blue Mountain of Puri). Odi odi, Utkalantha odi, Odi re prabhu, odi re thakura, odi

Jahaku paen bala thakura odi kare, Se katha bhanugale na hi sunu tore. Odi re prabhu, odi re thakura, odi.

(Note: Slight variations exist in different temple traditions and family recitations.) To truly appreciate the song, one must understand the intense emotion of viraha (separation) embedded in the words.
