Purano jaaniya cheyo na aamare aadheko aakhiro kone alaso onnomone.
Aapnare aami dite aasi jei    jeno jeno sei subho nimishei
Jirno kichhui nei kichhu nei,    phele dei puratone.
Aapnare dey jharna aapan tyagorase uchhali -
Lahore lahore nutan nutan arghero anjali.
Maadhobikunjo baar baar kori    bonolokkhiro daala dey bhori -
Baarbar taar daanomonjari    nabo nabo khane khane
Tomaro preme je legechhe aamay chiro nutanero sur.
Sab kaaje mor sab bhaabnay jaage chirosumodhur.
Mor daane nei dinotar lesh,    jato nebe tumi na paabe shesh -
Aamar diner sakol nimesh bhara ashesher dhane.
