Bengali : Aj debipokhyer shuru (The countdown starts for Durga Puja)

. Dhaeng kurakur Dhaeng kurakur, Baddi baje oyee, Maa aschhey din mepey, Tomar rajar saaj koi .... . Gariahatay dhakka kheye, Dhormotolay jai, Jhokmok shob korchhey botey, Tobu rajar shaj nai ... . Noto mostoke klanto daehe, Akhipodyo korojore, Bhalo lagay joriye nitey, Aj uthechhi onek bhore ..... . Aj Mahalaya tai ... . Debi shaan dio shukh dio, Dekhiye dio alo, Porer bochhor proti khhyone, Jeno shobar hoy bhalo ..... . Footnotes : Again and once again it is the Puja time. Any or every Bengali must be feeling for it. It is a festival of colours, it is festival of light, it is all about coming to your own and love ones. The feeling of Love starts from the pujas for many Bengalis. Its all about coming back home. It is a festival of hope and happiness...

As i was walking down the dungeon ....

I tried to walk today morning, A little, Morning only said by the ticks of my watch, It was dark inside ..... Around me was slimy walls, And darkness, They gathered as i was a part of them, I was walking down the dungeon .... I planned for the light, Thought of it and wanted to taste her warmth, Yet... i was walking for months, & have started to believe in fate .. I wouldn't have seen the darkness, Nor the thoughts i have, I felt i was making my last try, My last as i was walking down the dungeon ....

Bengali : Ichchye chhilo (i wished)

Ichchye chhilo tomar neshay, Hobo ami nishyo, Tomar chokher adhar mele, Dekhbo gota bishyo .... Ichchye chhilo hothat surjo, Osto gele mone, Jele debo tomar prodip, Amar ghorer kone .... Ichchye chhilo shopnogulo, Hobe pagol para, Ichchyedana ochin g(n)aye, Basha badhbe tara ... Ichhye chhilo ....Ichhye chhilo ...

Confined ....

I remember you as i write, Polka dots filling my vision, My heart beats stepping down, Slowly and very slowly .... My body droopes in agony, Doped with my own, My very own desires, A strange contradiction ... I fill my nasal chambers, With discolored ashlets, And i feel the warmth, The hot nicotene stream ... Ahh ...Now i cherish, Sweet memories, I have got lost in borkhas, Please someone switch on the light .... for me Patience kills me, In my unknown bliss, Maybe i need you, I miss you... i miss you ....

She ....

Small bells tinkered as she rose for some freedom, Her forehead was facing dusk, It was pure magik as she looked in grace, She was beautiful ..... I couldn't hold my eyes, As they traversed through her trust, Till and untill they stopped, To gaze at her "kajal" filled eyes .... The tinch of innoscence, Drove me mad, I couldn't resist love, Lord let her be mine .... Let the rest remain unsaid, As they move out of the locus, Let me cherish memoirs in peace, Let me move out of your focus .....
