..'R ASHBO NA FIREY'..

“..Na, r ashbo na firey
Tomader oi mukhoshpora rongin michiler virey,
R ashbo na firey
Shaajaate amar ei ami-k tomader moton kore..

Ami chhure fele diyechi tomader shobvotaar daan,
Nittoshongi - ‘muthophone’,
Ami haate tule niyechi
‘Josna-jol’, r hridoye - notun abaahon..

Ami bohudin poth chire gechi
Gotisheel janbaahon-k kore shongi
Baachiechi shomoy-k; na kore upovog
R hoyechi krittim niyome bondi,
Ami shob diyechi, jotota chhilo amar
Binimoye, peyechi shimito gondi..

Ami tai vebechi, r shudhu-i vebechi -

Na, ta noy momotamoyeer aanchole fota
Gondho chhorano ful,
Noy lojjabrito torunir naake chomkaano shishir
Abege dodul,
Noy tonny kishorir komore aanchre pora
Shaaper moto beni,
Vebechi boshe - amar ami-k
Ei ami kototuku jaani?..

Ami unmukh vabnaay boshe
Ami sraanto vabna sheshe
Ami srota veshe asha shurer
Ami pothik - chole jaowa poth durer..

Tobe keno shikhbo ja amake shekhano hoy?
Keno chalabo baertho cheshta aakre dhore rakhar
Ja kokhono-e amar noy?

Ami gaathi kothar mala
Ami baadhi gaaner shur
Tobe keno ami shaajaabo mukhoshe nijeke
Nirobotaay khuje firey hariye fela dupur?

Keno ami amake khujbo onner chokhe
Polok felar shomoy?
Keno ami thhoter kone shaajiye raakhbo haashi
Jokhon amar buk-tole boy proloy?

Keno shudhu dekhbo paathorkhonder niche
Chaapa pore thaaka holud chaara, shurjalok theke bonchito howa;
Keno dekhbo na niyoto onahaare thaaka
Pothshishur mukhaayobe snehaadrota,
Shontushtir avaar ashaa-jaowa?

Keno shudhu dekhbo ononto poth dheergotite paari deya
Ondho-vikkhuker pa, dhula bijorito;
Keno dekhbo na footpathe bosha shotochhinno naarir
Pathor-chokh, niyomer dara nishpeshito?

Keno shudhu dekhbo shaafolle urdhe chhora
Taarunner mushtiboddho haat;
Keno dekhbo na shujoger ovabe,
Shomporker jaale pora, dhikkar pirito
Bekar juboker onidraay kaatano kromagoto raat?

Keno shudhu dekhbo chhotto piprer chinidola churi korar oporaadhe
Shhagrohe bichar ebong jibon beeline howa;
Keno dekhbo na Dinosor-der groho odhikaar,
Nirontor obaak proshaaron shotteo
Trinoshomo onutopto howa?

Tobe ki ami vule giyechi ‘CHAARPOTRO’ Shukanter?
Tobe ki ami haariye felechi ‘AMAR KOIFIOT’ Nazruler?

Ami to shudhu-e cheyechilam amar moner kone-
‘Rod-Chaad utha ek tukro baraanda’ tomader kaachhe,
Keno tobe tomra dhaalle ‘Jantrik-niyomer jol’
Amar ea shopno, shobdo, chondo-pagol shobuj-moner gaache?

Aj tai ami praashaad chhere uthe eshechhi pother ‘pore
Dekhbo bole ea hridoy diye -
‘Joler toler joler cholon’,
Amar ea piyaashi du’chokh vore..

Aj r amaay dekona pichhu chena gaaner shure shure
Jodi chaao cholte shaathe rekhe haater ‘pore haat, tobe -
Uthe esho pothpaarer pothti dhore..

R jodi na chaao -
Jene rekho shudhu -

Aashbo na r firey
Tomader oi mukhoshpora rongin michiler virey,
R ashbo na firey -
Shaajaate amar ei ami-k tomader moton kore..”
