ଫିରଫିରିକେ Dragonfly Poem by Gajanan Mishra

ଫିରଫିରିକେ ମୁଇଁ ବଲୁଛେଁ
ବଢେଟେ ଚେରେ।
ସମୁଦରକେ ବଲୁଛେଁ ଚହଲାଟେ!
ଆରୁ ଇନେ ମରୁଛେଁ
ଚୁଛେ ଚୁଛେ ଶୁଖେଭଟେ।
କେନ୍ତା ମୁଇଁ ନେଇଁ ବୁଝୁଛେଁ
ଜିବନ ଜଉଛେ ନାଟେ ନାଟେ,
ହାପସିକେଚଡେଇ ହାଟେବାଟେ।

English rendering;

Dragonfly

I tell dragonfly
A big bird.
And tell watercourse
As sea and ocean.
And I die
For nothing.
How I failed to
Understand, here
And there life is
Going towards
Ending for nothing.
