Kaudi(A Poem In Odia Language)
Uttala sagara ra
Keun gahirare
Tu thau kaudi?
Lahari re uthi asu belabhuin
Bali re bichhudi jaau
Taraphula pari
Tu mane heu, sate aba
Eka rahasyamaya sweta pari
Kejani keun kalu
Manisa bandhi hoi rahichi
To maya re
Adari neichhi tote
Ta' sukha duhkha
Janma maranara sathi kari
Janma jatakara Sathi ghara kanthare
Tote basei
Gadha hue Sathi ghara
Kuni kuni pua jhianka hata re
Tu nachi uthu chham, chham
Aba, bibaha bedire
Barabadhu hata muthare
Tote nei khela jae
Michhi michhika
Bala kasakasi khela
Manisa ra hasa luha saathe
Tu emiti jodi jaaichhu, adya ru pranta
Anitya pruthibi ru bidaya ghenila bele
Manisa tote lode
Tu khasipadu, tap tap kari
Taa bidaya pathare
Thopaa thopaa luha pari.

My heartfelt thanks to you for your kind visits to my poems.
Part - 1 After about two years i have come to re read this poem as it attracts me for its amusing depiction. The relation of Kaudi with the lives and deaths of humans is so touchingly and incisively inscribed. It is related with marriage and at last with death. Here i cited..... Tu nachi uthu chham, chham Aba, bibaha bedire Barabadhu hata muthare Tote nei khela jae Michhi michhika Bala kasakasi khela
