At the end of the day....


My job is done for the day!
Bhu!
Bhuvo!
Swa!
What are you thinking in this endless land?
Morning is gone, Afternoon will be gone also
Evening will come like the end of every day.
Is the life arranged for this only?
Have you listened to the silent cry of setting sun?
Have you not got much?
What do you plan to take with you?
Traveler,
In this endless sea of time.


Bhu!
Bhuvo!
Swa!
Asimer matite bose ki korcho?
Sokal gelo, dupur sesh, bikeler barifera,
protoher basone morichikar gujobe
sondha neme alo-
praner ayojon ki ai jonne?
daar khule gayatrir nitto logne
swarupi neel agnir daan
niyeacho nijer ghore?
buker spondone sono sourodhoni?
jaa jothesto taar cheye besi ki niye jaabe?
hey pantho,
somoyer sbodto mohonai!
