Sei bhaalo ma, sei bhaalo.
Thaak tor montro, thaak tor –
Aar kaaj naai, kaaj naai, kaaj naai.
Na na na, por montro tui, por tor montro –
Path to aar nei baaki !
Aasbe se, aasbe se, aasbe,
Aamar jibonmrityu-simanay aasbe.
Nibiro raatre ese pouchhobe paantho,
Buker jwaala diye aami
Jwaaliye debo deepkhani –
Se aasbe.
