'Aasa-jaaowa' poem was included in the collection 'Saanai' –

... Bhaaalobasa esechhilo

Emon se nihshabdo-charone ...

This song 'Prem esechhilo ...' had been derived from this poem five days after the death of Andrews. It was later included in the 'Prem' (Love) section of Geetabitan. The connection between love and death had been depicted by him in another poem written about forty years back, in the memory of Mrinalini devi, his wife. The third poem of the collection 'Smaran' reads –

... Prem esechhilo, chole gelo se khuli dwaar –

Aar kobhu aasibe na.

Baaki aache shudhu arek otithi aasibar,

Taari saathe shesh chena ...

Transliteration in English

Prem esechhilo nihshabdocharone.
Taai swapno  mone holo taare –
Dei ni taahare aason.
Bidaay nilo jabe, shabdo peye genu dheye
Se takhon swapno kaayabiheen
Nisheethotimire bileen –
Duropathe deeposhikha    roktimo morichika.
