Poem : Bengali -- Our Eternal Voice

Image
Your language My language -- Beating softy In the heart's deep chamber --- Bengali. Your hope My hope ---- Flowing together In one living breath -- Bengali, The language of our soul. Mother's tender smile --- Bengali. Mother's boundless love --- Bengali. In her lullaby, In her gentle call --- Bengali. In poems that bloom, In songs that soar, In the secret music Of every heart ---- Bengali. In rhythm and rhyme, In harmony's  chime, Binding us together In unity divine ---- Bengali. The apple of our eyes, A treasure - house of gems, A radiant jewel In history's crown ---- Bengali. In every slogan that shakes the sky, In every fearless cry --- Speak it loud, Speak it proud ----- Bengali. Drifting through dreams of creation and joy, Our pride,our promise, Our shinning identity --- Bengali. The light of knowledge, The dawn of wisdom, Forever our mother's voice --- Bangali, Our mother tongue. ;;;;;;;;::::::::::::::: Poet : Dr. Goutam Kumar Mallick

Poem : O First Scientist




On the path you showed,
we boarded buses,trains
And airplanes,
And reached the land of the atom bomb.

Today we can reach the moon,
none will be amazed
if we set foot on mars.

We can give life,
yet remain busy
in the game of taking lives.
The mask of civilization
falls away
in a sudden gust of wind.

O first scientist,
was it not you
who sowed the seed of civilization ?

Come again
plant a tender sapling anew ---
not outside,
but deep within our veins,
let civilization bloom in blood.
