Aaha,  aaji e basonte eto phul phute,
Eto bnaashi baaje, eto paakhi gaay,
Sokhiro hriday kusumokomolo -
Kaar anaadare aaji jhore jaay.
Keno kaachhe aaso, keno michhe haaso,
Kaachhe je aasito se to  aasite naa chaay.
Sukhe aachhe jaara  sukhe thaak taara,
Sukher basonto sukhe hok saara -
Dukhini naarir nayonero nir
Sukhi jane jeno dekhite naa paay.
Taara dekheo dekhe naa.
Taara bujheo bojhe naa,
Taara phireo naa chaay.
