Haay re,   ore jaay na ki jaana
Nayon ore khnuje beray,    paay na tthikana.
Alakh pathei jaawa aasha,    shuni charonodwonir bhaasha –
Gandhe shudhu haaway haaway roilo nishana.
Kemon kore jaanai taare
Bose aachhi pather dhaare
Praane elo sondhyabela     aaloy chhaayay rongin khela –
Jhore-para bokulodale bichhay bichhana.
