Kharobaayu boy bege,    chaaridik chhaay meghe,
Ogo neye, naaokhani baaiyo.
Tumi koshe dharo haal,   aami tule bnaadhi paal -
Hnaai maaro maaro taan hnaaiyo.
Shrinkhale baarbar jhaanjhano jhaankar,   noy e to taronir krandono shankaar -
Bandhano durbar sojhyo na hoy aar, talomalo kare aaj taai o.
Hnaai maaro maaro taan hnaaiyo.
Goni goni din khan    chanchalo kori mon
Bolo na, 'Jaai ki naai jaai re'.
Sangshoypaarabar    antare habe paar,
Udbege taakayo na baaire.
Jodi maate mahakaal, uddaam jatajaal jhare hoy luntthito dheu utthe uttal,
Hoyo naako kuntthito, tale taar diyo taal -   joy joy joygaan gaaiyo.
Hnaai maaro maaro taan hnaaiyo.
