Ratri nai diba nai
    Jhup jhup brishti
Dekhite dekhite koi
Dibaser khudra parisare
    Bhese gela srishti
Chhannachhara grihahara
    Manab santan shato shato
Kanditecha artasware
Nirashroy nir hara bihanger mato
Nahi anna nahi bastra
Charidik shudhu jalomoy
Apar baridhi bakke bhese asa
Jena khanda bangsha danda
    Kariya ashroy
Ajio rayeche benche
    Hatobhagya sarbanasha
Jara tahader rekeche banchaye
Kon marichika sei kon
    Kuhakini asha

Day in, day out it is raining heavily,
A deplorable sight.
Birds are helpless, human beings are helpless.
Flood, a merciless flood has taken millions
Away to the other world.
And those who are still alive
Are building their hopes
   in the world of nowhere.
