Aaji bijan ghare nishithraate aasbe jodi shunyo haate -
Aami taaite ki bhoy maani !
Jaani jaani , bondhu jaani -
Tomar aachhe to haatkhaani.
Chaawa-paawar pathe pathe din ketechhe konomote,
Ekhon samay holo tomar kaachhe aapnake dii aani.
Aandhar thaakuk dike dike aakash-andho-kora,
Tomaar paros thakuk aamar-hriday-bhora.
Jibondolay dule dule aaponare chhilem bhule,
Ekhon jibon maron du dik diye nebe aamay taani.
