Lyrics

Roman script	Bengali script	Translation
Rúpkathár ek rájá chilo Háste se je jánto ná to Hátete bhar diye jeto Páye kare muŕi kheto Májh ráteri miśt́i rode Pit́h rekhe se pit́he kheto Jibher jore ákh cibota Dáṋte kare ras cúśita T́enis khelár mát́her májhe Jál phele se mách dharita Bhardupure bhúter bhaye Jaler niice lukiye jeto Báic khelár naoko caŕe Dúr ákáshe háoyá kheto Kájer samay cokht́i buje Mat́ká mere nák d́ákáto	রূপকথার এক রাজা ছিলো হাসতে সে যে জানতো না তো হাতেতে ভর দিয়ে যেতো পায়ে করে মুড়ি খেতো মাঝ রাতেরই মিষ্টি রোদে পিঠ রেখে সে পিঠে খেতো জিভের জোরে আখ চিবোত দাঁতে করে রস চূষিত টেনিস খেলার মাঠের মাঝে জাল ফেলে সে মাছ ধরিত ভরদুপুরে ভূতের ভয়ে জলের নীচে লুকিয়ে যেতো বাইচ খেলার নৌকো চড়ে দূর আকাশে হাওয়া খেতো কাজের সময় চোখটি বুজে মটকা মেরে নাক ডাকাতো	In legend, there was a king; Alas, he did not know how to laugh. On his hands he would walk; Puffed rice he ate with his feet. In the pleasant sunshine at midnight, He dined on pie from the furrow of his back. With his tongue, he would chew sugarcane; Its juice he sucked with his teeth. At the center of the tennis court, He spread his net to catch fish. Fearing ghosts in the afternoon, Beneath the river he hid. In his race boat, he sailed upward; He fanned himself in the distant sky. During work hours, his eyes were closed; Pretending to sleep, he snored.
