Asche ebar onagoto proloy neshar nrityo pagol, Shinduparer Shingho -dhare dhomok hene vanglo agol. Mrittu gohon ondho kupe, Mohakaler Chondra-rupe, Dhume dhupe Bajra-Sikhar moshal jele asce voyongkor, ore oi hasche voyongkor. Tora sob Joyodhoni kor! Tora sob Joyodhoni kor! Dbhados robir bonhi-jhala voyal tahar noyon kotay. Digantarer kadon lutay prinjal tar trosthro jotay. Bindu tahar noyon jhole Sapto Moha-Shindhu dhole Kapol- tole. Bishya -Mayer ason tahar bipul bahu'r por. Tora sob Joyodhoni kor! Tora sob Joyodhoni kor! Mavaih, mavaih! Jagot jure pralay ebar ghoniye ase. Jhoray mora mumurshoder pran lukano oi binashe.
