Sing A Bihugeet, I Shall Hear And Go Away Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Sing,
Sing you a bihugeet,
I shall hear
And go away.

In your bihugeet,
Lies it the song of Assam,
The people Assamese,
The traditions
Austro-Asiatic, Indo-Burmese and Indo-Aryan.

From far off lands,
Have I come to see and hear
Your Bihugeets,
To see you worshipping,
Dancing and celebrating
With a joy and spirit of own.

The folk dances, the folk songs specific,
The field with harvest
Or the dawn of the new year eve
As per the local calendar
And you celebrating,
Offering to gods
And enjoying life.

People will sing and dance
And the nights will reverberate with
With the lilt of,
The dhol, tal and pepa,
The drum, cymbal and horn.
