Choitre r jaala dhora roddur.
Kalboishakhi r bhaangeni ekhuno ghum.
Gariahaat er sale er season.
Aar kichu khawa daoa chaaye mon,
Chhoto boro Sokol restaurant tai byasto, korte aayojon.
Er maajhe aashe notun Borsho!
Calendar er paatay
Tero parbon ke abar khunje paoar anondo.
Ekta mishti onubhuti,
Ektu bhalo laaga,
Chhuti r aamej er resh dhore
Notun ke ghore tola.
Shubho hok shokoler Notun Borsho!

Intoxicating Music

It was an intoxication of a different kind! Am not sure whether it can be called anything other than intoxication. Just like any other intoxicating substance this also began to with a slow sort of feel good factor. In the beginning, it was just that….a sort of feel good kind of state where the mind and body begins to relax and get ready for going to the next stage. Then comes the feeling when one realises that one is losing control over the mind and body. The drug begins to dictate terms, the mind loses control and the motor neurons that are responsible for carrying instructions to different parts of the body begin falling asleep one by one. Starved of any specific direction from the central command, the parts of the body start to behave on their own free will-the foot starts to tap, a finger swings in a certain rhythmic motion, the head begins to nod. Finally, like one huge sweeping gesture, the drug takes full control and makes the body enters into a trance like state! This is preci...

Ode to the Ghazal maestro-Jagajit Singh

बह गया वोह कगाज़ की कश्ती की तरह, गीतों से दिल  को छू के. जब दिन आ गएँ शबाब के, ओढ़े कफ़न चल दिए. होठों से छू के, हर गीत  जो अमर कर दिए. मुस्कुरा के गम छुपाने का, तरकीब सिखा गएँ. सितारा जो सो गया, परेशान रात साड़ी है. कुछ मीठी यादें और वोह दर्द भरी आवाज़, हमारे लिए छोर गएँ. ना चिट्ठी ना कोई सन्देश, जाने कौन सा है वोह देश बाबूल की नैहर चोर के, है कहाँ तुम चलें गएँ?  फिजां में बिखर गया, खुसबू की तरह बन के. बदन बिना, चेहरा बिना, सिर्फ यादों में बसे रह गएँ! शफक, धनुक, महताब घटाएं, तारे, नागने, बिजली, फूल. हर चीज़ याद करेगा तुम्हे, तुम हमारी दिल में अमर हो के रह गएँ.

Our Globalised World

The world is in a turmoil, And this time its just not about the fight for oil! There are doubts about continuity of Euro. The economy in Europe is stagnant-at near zero! Recession fears stalk the entire globe! Right from the deserts of California To the Pacific shores in faraway Tokyo. In absence of a demand, the factories cannot produce. Attractive discounts-even three for the price of one, is of no use! People are not buying many cars. They are neither spending on perfumes, air-conditioners or other wares! In Shangahi, one doesn’t have money for a house to possess, In USA banks are scared of mounting losses! Its no better even in our own country. Indian GDP going down doesn’t make anyone feel very cheery! The government has no money to make the economy grow. Neither have the best brains done anything worthwhile to show! Amongst the gloom all around, the saddest thing happens in one of India's remote towns. Prafulla Murmu is in a state of shock, for los...
