English Lyrics of Ke Elo Aaji E
Ke elo aaji e ghor nishithe,
Saadhero kaanane shaanti naashite.
Matto kori jato paddobono dale
Bimalo sarobaro monthiya,
Ghumanto bihage keno bodhe re
Saghane kharo sharo sondhiya !
Tarase chamokiye horino-horini
Skholito charone chhutichhe !
Skholito charone chhutichhe kaanone,
Koruno-nayone chaahichhe.
Aakul sarosi, saaraso-saarosi
Sharo-bone poshi knaadichhe.
Timir dig bhori ghoro jaamini,
Bipad ghano chhaaya chhaaiya.
Ki jaani ki habe aaji e nishithe,
Tarase praan otthe knaapiya.

Notes: While writing and composing the tune of this song for the group of Banadebis in Kaal-Mrigaya the poet had had a Pada of Vidyapati at the back of his mind.
Bhara baadara, maaha bhaadara
This shows how much the poet was influenced by Vidyapati. He had used a couple of phrases from the said Pada in his song, unaltered.
Saghane khara shara sandiya and Timira dig bhari ghor jaamini
