..'JOSNASNAATO JOSNA'..

“..Na jani keno shedin parini thaakte ghore
Kisher aakorshone jeno ghor chhere ber holam;
Dekhlam josna chaaridhaare..

Chaad jeno shedin koresilo pon –
Prithibire debe josnaay dhoaaye
Shob baestotar majhe-o shob manush-k
Debe taar manush-k mone koriye..

Chupi chupi doroja viriye diye takalaam charpaashe,
Muhurtei jeno shob chena chena laglo
Shudhu mon jeno roilo kaar aashe..

Piyashi chokh, varakraanto pa niye
Eshe boshlam pukur ghaate,
Joler upor dekhe josnar cholon
Abegi chintara elo smritipote..

Thik okhaantatei boshte tumi; pa du’khani jole dubiye
Mone hoto jeno ek josnakonna, disso pukurjole josna chhoriye!

Ki odvut mayaabi ek ava tokhon thaakto mukhti ghire
O kajol-makha boro boro chokher baaka chaahoni dekhte
Chaaitam firey firey..

Hothhat-e taakate akashpaane; gunguniye madokotar shur
Obak, mugdho ami
Chokh bondho kore mone gethe nitam –
Sha shur shumodhur..
Tarpor okoshmat thaamiye gaan bolte ‘Paashe bosho’;
Oparog ami
Opar shundorer shommukhe,
Boltam – ‘R ekbar haasho’..

Ki oboleel sha haashi chonchol
Jeno shoto shoto pakhir kolotaan,
Jeno uchu pahar theke beye nama
Jhornar kul’dhoni ofuraan..

Didhagrosto jorano pa, r mohito akhi duti niye
Boshtaam tomar paashe,
Takaale o mukhpaane, mone hoto jeno –
Josna tomate vaashe..
Eke eke tumi gunguniye gaaite icchhemoto
Hoye unmaad shurer dharay; shobdo shajatam koto shoto!

Amar bukete eliye matha jokhon takaate amar paane –
Chokh na shoriye partaam na thaakte
O drishty j baetha haane!

Duru duru buke shahosh niye kortam, tomar tonu sporsho
Thik tokhoni du’to mukto porto beye o chokh hote
Baraato ea mone koshto..
Elochulgulo nij haate shajatam ami joto
Lovi batashera-o chhuye jete chaaito
Shudhu tomakei obiroto..
Tomar shoundorjo, haashir ava, amar pipasha metato joto
Buk theke baethara ekotrito hoye osru jhorato toto..
Tomar amar osrur fota jokhon ekshaathe eshe milto
Dekhiye sha jol, tomar du’akhi taar karon jaante chaaito..

Bolte tumi, ‘Cholo ghore cholo, thaanda lagbe pore’..
Aj-o tai josna upovog sheshe keno jeno bar bar sha kotha-e mone pore..

Bolechhile tumi, ‘Dure chole gele-o josna hoyei abar ashbo!’
Chole gele kon ovimaani hoye?
Sha uttor ki kovu paabo?

Aj-o tai jokhon josna jhore
Mone hoy tumi daakso..
Aager moto thik okhaantay boshe –
Josnay snaan korso!..”
