Kolkata

Ekanto apon Kolkata -

Ogunti manusher bhir,

Kobekar bhule jaoa kotha,

Okaron mon osthir.

Jan-jote jome thaka rasta,

Tip-tip brishtir jol,

Miss kora CTC-r bus-ta --

Dai ni to kono missed call.

Fele asha jontrona gulo,

Nesha dhora jiboner gho(o)r -

Hariyeche colleg-er dhulo,

Harai-nee amar shohor.

Ami

onek khujeo painee nijer kore -

amar ami hariye gache ajke prothom bhore.

koyek bochor ageo chilo, ache sara-khhon -

ekti mon noyto e je, e to onek mon.

somoy ashe, somoy jai, somoy nirobota,

moner bhetor bujhte pari moner gopon kotha.

amar ami hariye fele pelam sobar gaan,

abeg-ghono praner khelai pelam notun pran.

Tumi

amar porar table, pore thaka boee,

pen, pencil, khata - se to ami noee.

amar janlar fake ek chilte rode

mishe thaka kanna, hotasha -

tai niye beche thake bach-bar asha,

amar moner majhe joto bhalo-basha

tomakei ghire thake poloke poloke,

amar lukano batha hashir jholoke.


jokhon pelam ami -- tomai du-chokh bhore,

pelam bachar mane -- nijer moton kore,

pelam hariye jaoa nirob shopno koto,

pelam jibon-take -- obiram, obiroto.


amari hater lekha kobitar soee

ar bolbena jani - " e to ami noee".
