Opurnota (In Bengali) Poem by Souren Mondal

Prithibir ei jonosumudrer majhe
Nijer banano kon kolponar jogote
Aacho tumi lukiye?

Tomai tonno-tonno kore cholche khuje kon kobi?
Kon chitrokor ondhokar ghore mombatir aaloi
Chaiche tomai ankte?

Ar tumi aacho tomari jogote
Jekhane
Porichorjai tomar lakho dasi
- Rajkumari!

Krishnoborno chekon shama, chokhduti tomar neel
Porone tomar lal pader shada sari
Pith diye jai boye chul lomba kalo
Jeno asharer kono diner megher ghota!

Ha,
Kobira tomai niye lekhe kobita
Rangai tomai nijeder subidha moton -
Tader kache to tumi sorbogunsomponna

Sobi aache tomar kache,
Tobu monta tomar sunno
Aacho takiye tar khojete
Korbe tomai je purno.
