Aaji knaade kaara oi shuna jaay,    anaather kotha kore haay-haay.
Din maas jaay, barosho phuray  phurabe na haahakar ?.
Oi kaara cheye shunyo nayaane    sukho-aasha-heen nabobarsho-paane,
Kaara shuye shushko bhumishayane  morumoy chaaridhaar.
Aashwasbachon sakolere koye     esechhilo barsho kato aasha loye,
Kato aasha dole aaj jaay chole -  shunyo kato poribar.
Kato obhaagar jibonosambal      muchhe loye gelo, rekhe gelo oshrujal -
Nabo barosher udayer pathe rekhe gelo andhokaar.
Haay, grihe jaar naai annokona     maanusher prem taao ki paabe na -
Aaji naai ki re kaatorer tare korunar oshrudhaar.
Knede balo, 'Naath, duhkha dure jaak,     taapito dharar hriday jurak -
Barsho jodi jaay saathe loye jaak barosher shokobhaar.'
