Once Rabindranath had aptly answered to a topic raised by Indira Devi on selecting an appropriate voice for a particular song, or responsibilities related to singing Rabindra Sangeet. He wrote on 13th Janaury, 1935 –

… There is no harm if a little girl may sing the song ‘Jodi Prem Dile Na praane …’ . In majority of cases the matching of song and the singer shall fail if conditions other than vocal quality are to be considered.

Jodi     prem dile na praane
Keno    bhorer aakash bhore dile emon gaane gaane ?
Keno    taarar maala gnaatha,
Keno    phuler shayon paata,
Keno    dokhin haawa gopan katha jaanay kaane kaane ?
Jodi     prem dile na praane
Keno    aakash tabe emon chaawa chaay e mukher paane ?
Tabe    khane khane keno
Aamar     hriday paagol-heno
Tori    sei saagore bhaasay jaahar kul se naahi jaane ?
