Bidghute Chora

bhalo-basha-hin byartho shedin ketechilo tar jonno -

raat-jaga joto kobitar khoto ghumiye chilo bishonno.

shei din tar obadhhotar mullo chokay aj -

bortoman-er ganer bhetor korche otit raj.

shei gan tai bar bar gai - hoyna tobuo purono

jontrona phike, snigdho bikel belar shanti kurono.

rastar more shorgol kore moyla phelar gari -

jonjal niye royeche dariye, shomoy teneche dari.

Ekla

ekla kichu obhimaner shari -

tader niyei amar choto bari.

barir bhetor nijer kolponake

shongi kore khujechilam jake,

nirud-deshe paliye geche se je -

paliye geche hajar noro-nari.


ajke dekhi ekla alor rode

porche chaya amar jibon-bodhe -

shiri beye otha ebong pora,

chotto-belar rong-beronger chora,

sharthopor kanna ebong prem -

gorje othe probol protishodhe.

Nagorik

udashi bishad makha amar shohorer pothe ghate

ajo dhulo ore, horn baje, taxi bhara khate.

ar onek dure - prithibir onno prante,

akasher shunnota ghera gopone ojante

bhetorer kobita-gulo shukiye jai -

byartho shopne ranga obo-chetonai.

mone pore otiter boi-shakhi jhore

megher natokiyo songlap;

mone pore purir shomudrer pare

balir opor payer ch(h)ap.


nobin adhunikotai amar shohorer pothe ghate

ajo jiboner roll-call-e chele-meyera class kate.

ektu, ektu, ektu kore egiye chole dom deoa ghori -

dishahin, shadhin nagorik.

Itihash

jani na se kon juge kono ek jon

akash-er dike cheye dekhechilo tara -

korechilo proshno bish-shito mon,

tobu paini shara.

keu mone rakhe ni - kono ek din

brishti-te bhijechilo shishu-der dol,

tulechilo buno phool, korechilo khela,

onabil anonde ghetechilo jol.

hajar bochor age kono ek chele,

paliye gechilo jani shob kichu phele -

kedechilo kono ek prem raat-bhor.

aro jani ekdin kono ek chor

churi kore niyechilo jiboner khide

kono ek peter taro-nai.

tarpore shomoy hete jai shidhe,

ar itihash thomke darai.
