The green means the greenery of my dear country, while the red circle in the centre shows the red sun rising over the green country, the red also means, that we respect the red blood sacrifice of so many who died for our country, and put them in the centre of green Bangladesh and our heart.

Both the answers above are fairly good. However, I got some additional information from internet search those may interest you:
Flag adopted 13 January 1972, coat of arms adopted February 1971.
The national flag is bottle green in color and rectangular in size with the length to width ratio of 10:6 bearing a red circle on the body of the green. The red circle has a radius of one fifth of the length of the flag. Its center is placed on the middle of the perpendicular drawn from the nine twentieth parts of the flag. The background color symbolizes the greenery of Bangladesh with its vitality and youthfulness while the red disc represents the rising sun and the sacrifice our people made to obtain our independence.
