Se aasi kohilo, 'priye, mukh tule chaao.'
Dushiya taahare rushiya kohinu, 'jaao!'
Sokhi olo sokhi, sotya koriya boli, tobu se gelo na choli
Dnaaralo samukhe; kohinu taahare, 'saro!'
Dhorilo duhaat; kohinu, 'aahaa, ki karo!'
Sokhi olo sokhi, michhe na kohibo tore,   tobu chhaarilo na more.
Shrutimule aanilo se michhimichhi.
Nayan bnaakaye kohinu taahare, 'chhi chhi!'
Sokhi olo sokhi, kohi lo shapath kore tobu se gelo na sore.
Adhare kapol parosh korilo tobu.
Knaapiya kohinu, 'emon dekhini kobhu,'
Sokhi olo sokhi, eki taar bibechona,   tobu mukh phiralo na.
Aapon maalati aamare paraye dilo.
Kohinu taahare, 'maalay ki kaaj chhilo!'
Sokhi olo sokhi, nsahi tsar laaj bhoy,   michhe taare onnunay.
Aamar maala ti cholilo galay loye.
Chahi tar paane rohinu abaak hoye
Sokhi olo sokhi, bhaasitechhi aankhinire -   keno se elo na phire.
