Lo Reva, Lo chuli, Lo Nian
Ebe bi Aai Maa'ra sei
Khyova mishrita daaka
Kaanare pratidhyoni tole
Kebethu Reva dhuan helani
Mora saptama shreni Pathya bahi
Kaahin haji galani
Hele, haji naahin Revati mo manaru
Sabu paatha padhua jhia maane
Mote Revati Revati mane huanti
Ghara paain jete aghatana
Jete bipada aapadara dosa
Ladi hoi jaae Revati maananka mundare
Bichari nirimakhi Revati maane
Rastare ghatare jadi
Kahatharu comment sunanti
Semananka bahire dori baandhi jaae
Basu Sir'anka chhabi jadi
Ajanate mane pashi aase
Pruthivi bhangi pade matha upare
Revati ku baadi budhi kebethu gheni galani
Hele, aajikali
Aneke basu sir saji
Hatare acid botala dhari
Revatiku khoji bulanti I

Dear Bharati, i was surprised to see a poem on Revati' Revati is a bright star that has varied characteristics. I wonder whether Senapati ji has just named the girl Revati or has given her the name due to the mysterious qualities attributed to this star. Well, though i do not know to read Odia language, i could gather the meaning behind this beautiful poem. Well, it is, indeed, sad that women in India are still given a step motherly treatment in spite of so much of education. It is more so in the villages than in cities. The mind set of people has to drastically change in order to give a respectable status to women. Bharati, i liked your poem and the subject specially, as it is something close to my heart too. Bharati, you deserve a full 10.
