Sur bhule jei ghure berai kebal kaaje
Buke baaje tomar chokher bhartsona je.
Udhaao aakash udaar dhara   sunilo-shyamal-sudhay-bhora
Milay dure, parosh taader mele na je -
Buke baaje tomar chokher bhartsona je.
Bishwa je sei surer pather haaway haaway
Chitto aamar byakul kare aasha-jaaway.
Tomay basai e-heno thnaai   bhubane mor aar-kotha naai,
Milan habar aasan haarai aapon maajhe -
Buke baaje tomar chokher bhartsona je.
