Jodi    tomar dekha na paai, probhu, ebar e jibone
Tobe   tomay aami paaini jeno se katha roy mone.
Jeno   bhule na jaai, bedona paai shayone swapone.
E sangsarer haate
Aamaar  jatoi dibos kaate,
Aamar    jatoi du haat bhore utthe dhane,
Tabu   kichhui aami paai ni jeno se katha roy mone.
Jeno   bhule na jaai, bedona paai shayane swapone.
Jodi aalosbhare
Aami    bosi pather  pore,
Jodi   dhulaay shayon paati sajatane,
Jeno   sakal path-i baaki aachhe se katha roy mone.
Jeno   bhule naa jaai, betona paai  shayone swapone.
Jatoi utthe haasi
Ghare   jatoi baaje bnaashi,
Ogo   jatoi griho saajai aayojane,
Jeno    tomay ghare hoy ni aana   se katha roy mone.
Jeno    bhule naa jaai, bedona paai  shayone swapone.
