Ekla bose baadol-sheshe shuni kato ki -
Ebar aamar gelo bela bole ketoki.
Brishti-saara megh je taare   deke gelo aakashpaare,
Taai to se je udaash holo -   noile jeto ki.
Chhilo se je ekti dhaare boner kinaray
Utthto knepe torit-aalor chokito isharay.
Shrabonghano-andhokaare    gandho jeto obhisaare -
Sondhyataara aaral theke khabor peto ki.
