Dhaki

  Era holen Dhaki
        Bujhchho ki go ta ki?
Era , pujor moja tomay diye-
        Ghor ke dichhe Faki.

     Eder shishu ghore kande-
     Pitar kole chepe,
     Kan ti pete shunbe
     Pitar Hridoy kamon kanpe.


Pitar kole chore shishu
Dekhbe penja megh
Kasher matha kamon dolay
Pagla haoar beg.


Ei asha ki mitbe bolo
Dhaki pitar shishur?
Jar shishu hok
Kanur,Harur, Bishur!

My Bengali Poems In English Transliteration

I am writing my Bengali poems here,in my blog in the fashion of English transliteration.Many of the computer operating systems including Windows xp,which is still being  used widely,does not support Bengali fonts by default;hence,my poems,if they are written in Bengali fonts,remain unintelligible to the readers,who like to use those operating systems and many of my friends have already complained me of that.So,now I have no other options left but only this one.Bengali poems in in English font may look some times awkward or may appear relatively difficult to read out to some extent-I think I will be excused for that!Thank you.

Nivrito Holi

  Bondhu aachhe door deshe te

     Amay fele aka-

     Kar sathe aj khelbo holi 

     Fichkari aj faka!                   

          Sob rong e aj berong lage

          Bichheder ei chhayay!                  

          Notun rongin bosonto aj

          Bibhor Modhur haoay.

                  

  Bondhu tomay rangiye dilum

  Amar moner ronge;

  Somosto rong ujar kore

 Amar nijer dhonge.

                  

         Somosto rong ujar kore 

         Rikto holo mon;

        Se riktota bhoriye dilo

        Bhalobasar dhon.

  Rikto holo,tripto holo,

 Abar uthlo bhore

 Amar mon; se sweeo madhurite,

 Tomay rongin kore!

Nirbak Sakhya

Amar sara sob somoye
Pabi e re nischoy
Tor jodi oi buke amar
Ektu jayga hoy
Bola ,na bola ja kotha dakh
Sesh hoye jabe sob
Nirbak,omor sokhyo shudhui
Thakbe he bandhob!

[NOTE:At first,I thought to write a 4-liner poem regarding a thought about friendship ....but after writing up the whole of the piece of poetry,I divided each line of it into two parts at the end.So now it is now nore a 4-liner,rather it has become a 8-liner....not much a bad idea,nah! :) ]

Smriti

Amar smrity ta abar firlo,
Valo lage eta shunte.
Kintu tui ta hariye chhili je,
A mon chay na mante!
Adi anonto kal jure tor
Smriti ta royechhe buk jure;
Thakbeo seta;parbo na to re
Bhule jete toke bhul kore!
Sukhe thakis,bhalo thakis,
bhulei thakis sob -
Ai kamonai kore jai shudhu,
He priya bandhob!
