Kakhon je basanto gelo,    ebar holo na gaan.
Kakhon bokulmul    chheyechhilo jhara phul,
Kakhon je phul-phota    hoye gelo abosan.
Ebar basonte kire    jnuthiguli jaage ni re -
Olikul gunjariya kare ni ki modhupaan.
Ebar ki somiran    jaagay ni phulobon -
Saara diye gelo na to, chole gelo mriomaan.
Basonter shesh raate    esechhi je shunyo haate -
Ebar gnaathi ni maala,    ki tomare kori daan.
Knaadichhe nirabo bnaashi,    adhore milay haasi -
Tomar nayone bhaase chhalochhalo obhiman.
