Ei kothata dhore raakhis -   mukti tore petei hobe.
Je poth gechhe paarer paane se pothe tor jetei hobe.
Abhoy mone kantho chhaari    gaan geye tui dibi paari,
Khushi hoye jhorer haaway dheu je tore khetei hobe.
Paaker ghore ghoray jodi, chhuti tore petei hobe.
Chalar pathe knaata thaake, dole tomay jetei hobe.
Sukher aasha aankre loye    moris ne tui bhoye bhoye,
Jibanke tor bhore nite maron-aaghaat khetei hobe.
