Ogo dekhi, aankhi tule chaao,
Tomar chokhe keno ghumoghor.
Aami ki jeno korechhi paan,
Kon modira raso-bhor.
Aamar chokhe taai ghumoghor.
Chhi chhi chhi.
Sokhi, khoti ki.
(E bhabe) keho gyani oti, keho bhola mon -
Keho socheton, keho acheton -
Kaaharo nayone haasir kiron,
Kaaharo nayone lore -
Aamar chokkhe shudhu ghumoghor.
Sakha keno go achalopraay
Hetha, dnaaraye toruchhaay.
Sokhi, abash hridaye bhaare charon cholite naahi chaay,
Taai dnaaraye toru chaay,
Chhi chhi chhi.
Sokhi, khoti ki.
(E bhabe) keho pore thaake, keho chole jaay,
Keho ba aalose cholite na chaay,
Keho ba aaponi swaadhin, kaaharo 
Charone porechhe dor.
Kaaharo nayone legechhe ghor.
