Rokter Daag
Rakto chai, rakto chai
Bachar janno nay, khoar janno chai.
Hok se manusher
Ba hok kukurer
Tabu aaj bhoger majhe
Sei to somros.
Sudhu bodlaini dekhar najor
Ebar bodlei gelo –
Jibher swaad.
Ami sudhui jachchi
Otite chharie
Andhokare harie.
Tabu tanena mon
Ghore ferar tore
Fele asa sritir path
Aaj sabi bandho.
Hayto keu nei apekkhay
Hridoyer kone darie,
Chander tolay gopon pranoy
Lupto se sab jibon sojjay.
Jantronar asleshe
Barbar sab-I harai
Tabu jantrona kato apon
Takei agle amar ekhon –
Neel swapon.
Harie jaoa swabdo gulo
Khuje paina,
Pai sudhu chhai-bhosshe
Tomar hridoy.
Pure geche mon
Ba hayto purche se,
Jar tore protimuhurte
Amio jai egie –
Aro ek dhaap maroner pare.
Astitwo amar hayto karme
Astitwo hayto samparke,
Tabu se sab karechi dhoa –
Astitwo fike dhusar rong-e.
Magoje jantrona
Valo na lagar nesha,
Kobitar chonde bhul
Asombhobe mashgul.
Roder alloy aj vay
Hatashay amar prokash,
Ashonkar padokkhep
Bhanga sirir dhape dhape –
Amar rokter daag ….
