“আমি যাহাকে কেন্দ্র করিয়া ঘুরি, না পাই তার কাছে থাকার অধিকার, না মেলে দূরে যাওয়ার অনুমতি।”

~শরৎচন্দ্র চট্টোপাধ্যায়

Translates to- "Whom I revolve around, I do not get the right to stay near, I do not get the permission to go away."

amaar ekla akash thomke geche raater srothe bheshe, shudhu tomay bhaalo bheshe

my lonely skies have stopped sailing in the dark currents of the night, after (I started) loving you

amaar din gulo shob rong chineche tomaar kache eshe, shudhu tomay bhaalo bheshe

you acquainted my days with color , after (I started) loving you

tumi chokh mellei phool phutheche amaar chaade eshe

the moment our eyes meet, the patio blooms with flowers

bhorer shishir thonth chuye jaay, tomaay bhaalo bheshe

the morning dew caresses my lips after loving you

The Poem You’ve Been Waiting For by Tarfia Faizullah. Text ID under cut.

[Text ID: You’re always driving so far from me towards the me I worry, without you, is eternity. I lay there,

awake, keeping watch while you snored. I waited, as I always seem to, for you

to wake up and come back to me.]

"Who are you, reader, reading my poems an hundred years hence? / I cannot send you one single flower from this wealth of the spring, one single streak of gold from yonder clouds. / Open your doors and look abroad."

BANALATA SEN

চুল তার কবেকার অন্ধকার বিদিশার নিশা

মুখ তার শ্রাবস্তীর কারুকার্য,

অতিদূর সমুদ্রের পর

হাল ভেঙে যে নাবিক হারায়েছে দিশা,

সবুজ ঘাসের দেশ যখন সে চোখে দেখে

দারুচিনি-দ্বীপের ভিতর,

তেমনি দেখেছি তারে অন্ধকারে

বলেছে সে, এতদিন কোথায় ছিলেন?

পাখির নীড়ের মতো চোখ তুলে

নাটোরের বনলতা সেন।

~ জীবনানন্দ দাস

Her Hair Was Full Of The Darkness

Of A Distant Vidisha Night,

Her Face Was Filigreed With

Sravasti's Artwork. As In A Far-off Sea,

The Ship-wrecked Mariner,

Lonely, And No Relief In Sight,

Sees In A Cinnamon Isle Signs

Of A Lush Grass-green Valley,

Did I See Her In Darkness;

Said She, "Where Had You Been?"

Raising Her Eyes, So Bird's Nest-like,

Natore's Banalata Sen.

আমার চতুর পাশে সবকিছু যায় আসে

আমি শুধু তুষারিত গতিহীন ধারা

"All around me, life goes on

I am just a frozen stream, stuck in time"

who called it "one sided love" and not

"থাক থাক নিজ মনে দূরেতে

আমি শুধু বাঁশুরির-ও সুরেতে,

পরশ করিব ওর প্রাণ-মন, অকারণ"

darale duare mor is a song to behold… like the imagery and the yearning that goes beyond touch and feel. the fact that they have their lover right where they want in nandita’s part but it doesn’t do anything to soothe the ache, rather the need for them grows and grows.

“meenoti bhora ankhi

ke tumi jhorero pakhi”

those forlorn pleading eyes

who are you, o storm-struck bird?

ok bro

“kon priyo naame daki”

what sweet name may i call you by?

“joto dekhi toto hai

pipasha bariye jai

bolo ke tumi jadukori ”

the more i see you, oh dear

the more i keep yearning

who are you, o enchantress?

Aubade Ending with the Death of a Mosquito by Tarfia Faizullah. Text ID under cut.

[Text ID: silent—sister,                            because you drew from me                            the coil of red twine: loneliness— spooled inside—                            once, I wanted to say one                            true thing, as in, I want more in this life,                            or, the sky is hurt, a blue vessel—                            we pass through each other, like weary                            sweepers haunting through glass                            doors, arcing across gray floors]

when they say "i miss you" but robi thakur said “নিত্য তোমায় চিত্ত ভরিয়া স্মরণ করি, বিশ্ববিহীন বিজনে বসিয়া বরণ করি তুমি আছ মোর জীবন মরণ হরণ করি।”

I Forget The Rules of This Game.

'one sided shesher kobita'

i gave you my copy of shesher kobita with little pencil annotates in it. i gave you a piece of literature dear to me and i expected you to give me your heart in return; an unfair trade. although i had put a piece of my heart in the pages of the book —my thoughts—, your eyes saw none of it, your heart read none of it.

plath writes in one of her earlier journal entries — "there is so much hurt in this game of searching for a companion, of testing, trying. And you realize suddenly that you forgot it was a game, and you turn away in tears."

and one day you returned the book, you never showed up again. yes, i forgot the rules of this game. and i forgot that you were good at.
