Gajanan Mishra Memory Poems

ଏ ତୁମ ଅଗଣାର ମଲ୍ଲୀ
ଏତେ ବାସ୍ନାରେ ଭରପୁର
ଜାଣି ନ ଥିଲି!
ଥାଇ ବି ପାଖରେ
...

Memory gained
Feeding cow
Licks her calf
With love.
...

Only with memory
I play all days
And memory is my
Only area of activity.
...

ମରିକରି ଯିଏ ରହିଗଲା ସ୍ମୃତିରେ
ଆଉ ଯିଏ ବଂଚି ରହି ସ୍ମୃତିରୁ ହଜିଗଲା
ଉଭୟଙ୍କ ଭିତରୁ କିଏ ଥିଲା ନିଜର
କହିବ କିଏ କାହାର ଅଛି ଅନୁଭବ
...

Root is memory
Planted deep
Between present
And future.
...

All in memory,
In memory all.

But for how long,
...

In memory,
Nothing.
Only dust,
Only flame.
...

I am not committed though,
Memory comes with its memo.
How truthful I am
While writing memoir
...

Failure of memory
Is not bad symptoms,
Rather, it is good,
For the working groups.
...

Memory regained
And everything abandoned.
Memory regained
And everybody liberated.
...

Where is my memory
I am searching
Entire geaography
And history,
...

Let me check my memory,
Let me say where am I.
Let me imagine, let me think.
Let me say in my words-not shrink.
...

Here is my memory,
Let it be revived.
Here I am,
Let me live
...

Ask me not anything
Your expectation
Is not there
To be fulfilled.
...

To solve the problems
That are within.

Remember,
Nothing remained to be done
...

If you try to regain memory
There is no confusion in you
And you know the real affinity
For Almighty here
...

Always keep in memory
Your own position, my dear
Always be careful and remember
Day and night here.
...

I realized You
And You said it is knowledge
It is regaining of memory,
And knowledge is there
...
