..'CHAAD-TA CHHAARE NA PICHHU'..

“..Jekhanei ami jaai na keno chaad-ta chhare na pichu
Paar hoi ami koto poth-ghaat, koto pahar uchu-nichu!
Ekaki pothe udaash-khone,
Maajhraate chaowa akash-paane
Proshosto jomir shaarir pare,
Ghomta deya janala-aare
Chaad-ta chhare na pichu;
Eriye jai ami koto bondhon
Shudhu chaad-ta chhare ne pichu..

Ami-to shudhu-i mugdho srota ek,
Shur-chhonder prohori
Ki pelo sha ei amate?
Keno holo sha amar shohochori!..

..Raat jure akaashe shomudrer fena
Gore tole kotona murti;
Klaantiteo chokhe porena polok,
Shesh osrujol bishorjoner hoy hajar bochor purti..

Tondra-haara drishti jokhon megh canvas dekhe
Chaad-ta tokhoni uposthit hoy
Eshe daariye canvas-buke..

Kodachit jokhon diner belay utshobe kiba paarbone;
Lokaronne eshe mukhosh pori;
Fer dekhi chaad - manoshi kopal paane!

Chhute jai abar gohin adhaare,
Lojjito hoi, dekhe chaad-ke
Koto srishti-ke dekhlam hote onasrishti
Tobu sha to chhare na amake!
Buk chire jai boba shohorer -
Chaad-ta chhare na pichu;
Aarohon kori koto ohong-prashaade
Shudhu chaad-ta chhare na pichu!..”
