by Kazi Nazrul Islam, ‘Joy Hok’ (জয় হোক) is about emancipation from the human vices and celebration of the human virtues. With a unique visual interpretation from the musical film’s director, the song emphasizes breaking the shackles of bigotry, falsehood and oppression. On the verge of Bangladesh turning 50 years, this musical film is a fitting representation of our time, juxtaposed with the time documented by Nazrul himself.

????Lyrics:
জয় হোক জয় হোক —
শান্তির জয় হোক, সাম্যের জয় হোক্,
সত্যের জয় হোক জয় হোক॥
সর্ব অকল্যাণ পীড়ন অশান্তি
সর্ব অপৌরুষ মিথ্যা ও ভ্রান্তি,
হোক ক্ষয়, ক্ষয় হোক জয় হোক জয় হোক॥
দূর হোক অভাব ব্যাধি শোক
দুখ দৈন্য গ্লানি বিদ্বেষ অহেতুক,
মৃত্যুবিজয়ী হোক্ অমৃত লভুক —
ভয়-ভীত দুর্বল নির্ভয় হোক।
রবে না এ শৃঙ্খল উচ্ছৃঙ্খলতার
বন্ধন কারাগার হবে হবে চুরমার,
পার হবে বাধার গিরি মরু পারাবার —
নির্যাতিত ধরা মধুর, সুন্দর প্রেমময় হোক,
জয় হোক জয় হোক॥

Let there be victory
Let peace be the winner
Let equality be the victor
And truthfulness win over
All the evils of oppression and pain
All cowardice, falsehood and wrong
Let them all get diminished
And let there be victory
Let us banish poverty, disease and sorrow
Let us overcome deprivation remorse and jealousy.
Let us conquer death and be immortal.
Let the scared and the weak become fearless
This chain of oppression shall not last forever
The prison of confinement shall crumble to pieces.
They all will scale over the mountain of resistance
Let the ugly oppressed world turn beautiful and full of love
Let there be victory for all.
