... On the next day early in the morning I had planned with Banamali [Rabindranath's personal aid], wrote the word 'Bihag' on a piece of paper and placed it on his writing table. Gurudev started firing Banamali as soon as he saw the paper – 'Why do you allow strangers to enter? Don't you think that I have my own business? Is it my duty to supply songs that are ordered for?'

Banamali supressed his smile and made his way. The song in Bihag came –'Aaji tomay aabar chaai shunabare ...'. ...

Transliteration in English

Aaji tomay aabar chaai shunabare
Je katha shunayechhi bare bare.
Aamaro parane aaji je baani utthichhe baaji
Abiram barshanodhaare.
Kaarano shudhayo na, artho naahi taar,
Surero sanketo jaage punjito bedonar.
Swapne je baani mone mone dhwoniya utthe khane khane
Kaane kaane gunjoribo taai
Baadolero andhokare.
