My friend came to me, with sadness in his eyes
He told me that he wanted help
Before his country dies

Although I couldn't feel the pain,
I knew I had to try
Now, I'm asking all of you
To help us save some lives
Bangladesh, Bangladesh
Where so many people are dying fast
And it sure looks like a mess
I've never seen such distress

Now, won't you lend your hand and understand
Relieve the people of Bangladesh
Bangladesh, Bangladesh Such a great disaster-
I don't understand But it sure looks like a mess
I've never known such distress
Now, please don't turn away,
I want to hear you say
Relieve the people of
Bangladesh Relieve Bangladesh.
