O sona byang O kola byang
O Golden frog, O kola frog
O sona byang O kola byang
O golden frog ,O kola frog
Sara raat hende golai dakis ghangor ghang
you call all night in bad voice ghangor ghang
Tora ki gola sadhis ni tora ki nara bandhis ni
Have you not taken voice lessons
Ay chole ay amaar katche sikhie debo gaan
Come to me I will teach you how to sing
Balo to balo na balo to
Say now, say now
Pa pa dha pa pa pa dha pa re ga ma dha pa pa
Pa pa dha pa…
Very good Kola bang tumio bolo
Very good Kola bang you too sing
Ba ba re ba ba re baa

Sarata din lompo jhompo bondo kore dao
Stop jumping around whole day
Tanpuratay surti bendhe rewaj kore jao
Practice singing using the tanpura
Ma bolbe bhalo meye sona kola bang
Ma will say sona bang is a good girl
Ta jodi na koro tobe bhangbo tomar thang
I will break your legs if you don’t
Balo to sa re ga ma pa pa dha pa
Say sa re ga ma …
Ba ba re ba ba re baa
Bah bah re bah

Sammelane gaiben khan sagid sona bang
Sona bang will sing in a concert
Sangate sangite thaken pundit kola bang
Pundit Kola bang will accompany with beat
Tomra sobai sunte esho kola banger gaan
You should all come to hear the songs of Kola frog
Are sunbe gaaner sheshe nana rokom taan
and will hear many tunes at the end
Sunie dao sunie dao
Let them hear you let them hear you
Dha dha dhin dha ….
