চায়ের কাপে অল্প চিনি বেশী
এখনো কি উপন্যাসের নেশা
একইরকম লাজুক, এলোকেশী?

নাকি এখন বড়ো হয়েছিস বড়ো?
অবাধ্য চুল হার মেনেছে খোঁপায়?
চশমা ঢাকা চোখ আটকে স্ক্রীনে -
পুজোসংখ্যা বালিশে মুখ লুকায়?

ঊর্মি লহরী যত সুখ আর দুঃখের,
অহরহ ওঠে পড়ে জীবনের বৃক্ষের।

When Spring would come
And colour the boughs
With flowery imagination.

The wind blows
Through the branches bare
Whispering: "Put on a greeny dress
'Cause Spring is near."

security,
of growth,
prosperity and
eventual progress.

A splash of colours.
A wonderful cook -
A friend, a guide,
With nothing to hide.
Brimming with stories,
With happy endings.
Enthusiastic, lively;
A freshly painted rainbow
On my clear azure sky.

For a better day;
Work out your dreams,
Come what may!

Children's innocent words.

Who keeps me awake
At three in the morning.
You made me believe
Love’s not a pay-cheque;
Sometimes Life needs a tuning,
And giving up is not an option.

Yes, you’re the exception.
Who chose to stay,
All through out the way.

Memories came back.
Words which tore it apart
Flash past my window.

It's late, the clock has stopped,
Unmoved by time, just as I am.
Blank, all emotions robbed,
I sit, my heart ripped in my hand.

I stitch my heart, wearily,
Through the longness of night.
The dawn gives me hope.

Weaving golden threads
From the first rays of the sun,
I stitch my heart strong.
I've designed it with pain,
Embroidered with sequins of love
Of Life, of everything virtuous.
Now, I Live, and my heart beats steady.
