Mone holo periye elem asim path    aasite tomar dwaare
Marutir hote sudhashyamol paare.
Path hote gnethe enechhi siktojuthir maala,
Sakarun nibedaner gandho dhaala –
Lajja diyo na taare.
Sajalo megher chhaaya ghanay    bone bone,
Pathohaarar bedan baaje    somirane.
Durer theke dekhechhilem     baatayaner tale
Tomar prodip jwale –
Aamar aankhi    byakul paakhi   jharero andhokare.
