    I am giving its bengali lyrics here as Mone pore ruby roy kobitay tomake
    Ekdin koto kore dekechi
    Aaj hay rubi roy deke bolo amake
    Tomake kothay jeno dekhechi||
    Rod jola dupure sur tule nupure
    Bus theke tumi jobe nabte
    Ekti kishor chele eka keno dariye
    Se kotha ki konodin bhabte||
    Deep jwola sondhay hridoyer janalay
    Kannar khacha sudhu rekhechi
    O pakhi se toh ashe ni
    tumi valobesho ni
    Swapner jaal britha bunechi||
    You have to just check its accuracy

      Although I’m not a trained musician, but the way I write Sargam notations has been found suitable by many instrument players including mouth organ players. You may have to improvise a bit to follow my notations. Good luck!
