Lyrics in Bengali

আমার ভিতর বাহিরে অন্তরে অন্তরে
আছো তুমি হৃদয় জুড়ে ।।
 
ঢেকে রাখে যেমন কুসুম
পাঁপড়ির আবডালে ফসলের ঘুম
তেমনি তোমার নিবিড় চলা
মরমের মূল পথ ধরে ।।
 
পুষে রাখে যেমন ঝিনুক
খোলসের আবরণে মুক্তোর সুখ
তেমনি তোমার গভীর ছোঁয়া
ভিতরের নীল বন্দরে ।।
 
ভালো আছি, ভালো থেকো
আকাশের ঠিকানায় চিঠি লিখ
দিও তোমার মালা খানি
বাউলের এই মনটারে ।।
