Naho mata, naho konya, naho bodhu, sundari rupasi  hey nandanobaasini urboshi.
Gosthe jabe naame sondhya shraanto dehe swarnanchalo taani
Tumi kono grihopraante naahi jwaalo sodhadipkhani.
Dwidhaay jorito pade kamprobokkhe namronetropaate
Smitohaasye naahi chalo   lojjito basarsojjate ardhoraate.
Ushaar udayo-samo anaboguntthita   tumi akuntthita.
Surosabhatale jabe nrityo karo pulake ullosi
Hey bilol hillol urboshi,
Chhande naachi utthe   sindhumaajhe taronger dal,
Shoshyoshirshe shihoriya knaapi utthe dharar anchal,
Tomar modir gandho andho baayu bohe chaari bhite,
Modhumatto bhringo-samo mugdho kobi phire lubdho chite uddam gite.
Nupur gunjori chalo aakulo-anchala   bidyutochanchala.
