Jibon

Jiboner byastotar moddheo, kokhono sokhono
hotat kore, jokhon ami onubhab kori
somai theme ache, sandher ek posla bristi 
ar dupurer sei aguntuker alikhito prabesher
maj khane, aklanto somoi, tao jeno chirosthir
sabolil, tao keno jeno bisal gombhir
hoyto, ekei bole jibon, ekei bole benche thaka

hoyto, hoyto baa noe.

Jiboner bikel hote, ekhono onek deri ache
Ashabadi boley hoyto amar moner ei bhabna,
Jani chintata kichuta bastab, kichuta kalponik
Kintu, jai hok, chinta toh, tai likhchi alikhito tomai

Koto kotha thake, bolbo bhabi, likhte icche kore
Hoye othe naa. Byastotar chape noe, obossoi
Awlosotar preme. Ami jani somoi boro irshe kore
amar ei premik ke, albat kore, ami jani

Joto bhabi ekakitter sathe kichuta misti khunsuti korbo
Totoi somoi mone koriye dei, bhranti-bilas cholibe na guru
Haan sadhu bhasatar prayog slesh matro, na korleo cholto
Buddhijibira bole sadhu-choltir mishron cholbe na,
Tao kobi bole, hoyto tumi khoma kore debe. Tao cholbe na?
Jani tomake, chirota kal dhorei jani, albat cholbe na.
Cholbe, bolo na, bolo

Se bolle
hoyto, hoyto ba noe.

Sakal fele eshechi bhorer pore porei
Diner sokal noe, jiboner.
Ujjalatar ushnotai ghera klanti-hin sei sokal
Aaloe bhora, su-sojjito, amar sokal
koto chhera smriti, janala diye aajo unki maare amai
chora balir ushnotar moto, toliye jai amar mon
Sei sokaler, kokhono naa haronor gobhirotai.

Gache je somoi, se toh royei gache
Anander suptotai ghera sukkhotar chadore
Ami jani, tumio jano, sei anubhutita
Na janle ami sikheye debo, sei sukh pawar montro
Bhoy peyo na, bhorsha rakho
Ami kotha dilam.

Sudhu ekta kotha, jani aw-proyo-joniyo, tao dokar bola
Aj ami nobin, tumio tai, ek din jibon tori boye niye jabe
Amader jibon ke probinotar monthor stabdhatai
Somoi boye geleo, ami thakbo toh tomar smritite?
Kotha dao, kotha dao na.

Se sudhu bolle
hoyto, hoyto ba noe.
