আবার সকা�™.....

This is a bengali poem...with transliteration in english...

আবার সকা�™....

ফে�™ে-আসা রাতে’র ক’টা বস্তাপচা �™াশ,

আর খবরের উ�™্�™াস,

বিবর্তনের খামে-মোড়া আর্তির বিকাশ।

তবু নিত্য প্রকাশিত তমোঘ্ন,

তবু সুর প্রাণ খোঁজে পাখিদের �-ানে,

তবু এক-মনে রঙ-তু�™ি-হাতে ছবি আঁকে বসন্ত.....

যদি�", নিশ্চিত আমি, আর�" কিছু ভু�™ জমা ক’রে তু�™ি

আ�-ামী ভোরের ঠোঁটে বিষ ঢে�™ে দেব ব’�™ে ।

[Elghlish transliteration below ]

A new dawn descends,

Scrambling over a few maggoty corpses of a spent night;

And that perverse revelry of those dull news

With thriving distress neatly wrapped in frills of evolution.

Yet, every morn the sun bares its meditative face;

Yet, tunes seek refuge in chirping of birds;

Yet, pensively the Spring paints on newer images.

In the meanwhile I shall amass some more sins, I’m sure,

For to pour venom onto the lips of the dawn ensuing.

[SHEEMA HUQ]

I appreciate so much your translation from Hindi to English, which is an arduous task in itself ( and I hope that you enjoyed doing this), this piece is beautiful while at the same time some of the imagery is rather disturbing, great writing, well done!

Thank you, Seema, for your encouraging words....the original was in Bengali language.....

[SHEEMA HUQ]

Thank you for this, I ought to know this in fact but I don't read or write Bangla, ( do speak and understand fluently of course), take care

[Introspective Mind]
