Ghumer ghano gahan hote jemon aase swapno,
Temni utthe eso eso.
Shomishaakhar bakkho hote jemon jwale ogni,
Temni tumi, eso eso.
Ishankone kaalo megher nishedh bidari
Jemon aase sahosa bidyut,
Temni tumi chamok haani eso hridayotale,
Eso tumi, eso tumi, eso eso.
Aandhar jabe paathai daak mouno ishaaray,
Jemon aase kaalpurush sondhakashe
Temni tumi eso, tumi eso eso.
Sudur himgirir sikhare
Montro jabe preran kare taapas boishakh,
Prokhar taape kotthin ghano tushar golaye
Bonyadhaara jemon neme aase,
Temni tumi eso, tumi eso eso.
