পানিতে হল এ সংসার

panite hal e sangsar
ei je pani deh khani, srishti karle sai amar
nirakare dimbrupe bhesechilen sai
pani hate asman-jamin choudd bhuban hay।

panir ara panir bera pani chara ke ebar।

rai sarisha, matar, mashuri, til goja chola
kshira-kumra-tarmuj-shasha ar kala
peyara-pepe-postdana, panir ‘pare janm tar
mahuri-shupari, elaj-kasturi, barabti dhodhal
lichu pichu golap jam, hachche ram patal,
het kabajari rai-kheshari dumur dalim hay ebar।

am jam hay kathal ei bangladeshe
karamcha kamranga bhalo, khele jbar ase
aiphal-nashpati bhalo bangla deshe paoa bhar
ache angur kine khejur paysa jote na
langka khele pet jbale khao baraphdana
naser bale pani naile chalbe na ar e sangsar।
