Path ekhono shesh holo na, miliye elo diner bhaati.
Tomar aamar maajkhane haay   aasbe kokhhon aandhar raati.
Ebar tomar shikha aani
Jalao aamar prodipkhani,
Aaloy aaloy milon hobe pather maajhe pather saathi.
Bhaalo kore mukh je tomar jaay na dekha sundor hey -
Dirgho pather daarun glaani taai to aamay joriye rohe.
Chhaayay-phera dhulay- chala
Moner katha jaay na bala,
Shesh kathati jalabe ebar tomar baati aamar baati.
