Balo balo, bondhu, balo tini  tomar kaane kaane
Naam dhore daak diye gechhen jhor-baadoler modhyokhane.
Stabdho diner shaantimaajhe jibon jethay borme saaje
Balo sethay poran tini bijaymaala tomar praane.
Balo tini saathe saathe pheren tomar dukher taane.
Balo balo, bondhu, balo naam balo tnaar jaake taake -
Shunuk taara khonek theme, phere jaara pather paake.
Balo balo, tnaare chini bhaangon diye goren jini -
Bedon  diye bnaadho beena aapon-mone sahoj gaane.
Dukhir aankhi dekhuk cheye sahoj shukhe tnaahar paane.
