The lyrics of the song translate to:

“We will be free of Corona, Bela, truly
In just a small wait of 21 days
Maintain the lockdown
So that corona does not spread
Take a firm resolve in this regard
A few days after that, Bela, it is freedom
In all of Kolkata's bustling markets
In this city made up of small shops and its people
Will make yours and my life beautiful.
Is this 23412600
Can you hear the doctors?
23412600 is the corona helpline for WB”

The video soon went viral on the internet with Twitter applauding the policemen.
