意味
Trying to reach something far beyond one's capacity.
文化的背景
In Kolkata, this phrase is often used in political satire in newspapers to mock politicians making grand promises. In rural Bangladesh, the phrase is sometimes used by elders to discourage young people from moving to the city without a plan. Rabindranath Tagore and other poets have used 'Chand' (Moon) as a symbol of the beloved, making the 'reach' a romantic impossibility. Young professionals use it ironically to describe the difficulty of getting a promotion or a raise in a tough economy.

よくある質問
5 問In this proverb, it is a traditional metaphor. However, in modern conversation, calling someone a 'Bamon' can be offensive. Use the proverb as a whole, not the word alone.
Yes, but only to describe a project or goal that is truly impossible. Don't use it to describe a colleague's ambition unless you want to be rude.
'Akash Kusum' is about dreaming/fantasizing. 'Bamon hoye chande hat' is about the act of trying to achieve something you aren't 'qualified' for.
Not really. To be positive, you would say 'স্বপ্নকে ছোঁয়া' (Touching the dream).
The verb is usually 'দেওয়া' (dewa). You conjugate it based on the tense: 'দিয়েছে' (has given), 'দিচ্ছিল' (was giving), etc.
