Aakash hote aakash-pathe haajar srote
Jhorchhe jagot jharnadhaarar moto.
Aamar  shorir moner adhir dhaara saathe saathe boichhe abirito.
Dui probaher ghaate ghaate utthtechhe gaan dine raate,
Sei gaane gaane aamar praane dheu legechhe kato.
Aamar hridaytate churno se gaan chharay shato shato.
Oi aakash-doba dharar dolai duli abirito.
Ei nrityo-paagol byakulata bishwoparane
Nityo aamay jaagiye raakhe, shaanti na maane.
Chirodiner kaannahaasi utthchhe bhese raashi raashi -
E-sab dekhtechhe kon nidrahaara nayon abanato.
Ogo, sei nayone nayon aamar hok na nimeshohato -
Oi aakash-bhara dekhar saathe dekhbo abirato.
