Bari jabena ?

A still from Pather Panchali by Satyajit Ray   

kothao sharat esechhe sunlam....
kara bollo shiuli dekhechhe...
mayer kathamo niye kara chhutechhe...
shoishober susthotay abar sejechhe prithibi..
dupurer haoay dhuper gondho..
uthone haoay dulchhe amar mayer sari...
ek shotok periye ora eschhe hotat amar kachhe...
eder chokhe mukhe ektai proshno...

ora: bari jabena?

ami: bari? desh kaale ami onek dure chole esechhi...

ora: tobu bari jabena?

ami: tomra kichhu janona, kichhui bojhona...
       ami boro hoye gechhi...
       esob kichhu theke onek urdhe uthe gechi!

ora: urdhe? urdhe to susdhu faaka akash...
      aar rashi rashi shunyota!


uttor dite parlamna... ora chonchol ora fire gelo...
r ami onek onek urdhe buk bhora shunyota niye akasher dike cheye roilam...

A post that I was supposed to upload earlier... but forgotten like the story of this post!

 

রোজ রাত তোমায় গলপ বলি ...

হারানো পৃথিবীর ...

অনেক অনেক আগে  অনেকগুলো ঘাসের ডগায় শিশীর জমেছিল 

সূর্যের ঠাণ্ডা রশ্মিগুলো ফুল ফুটিয়েছিল যেন 

কাশবনের গা ঘেঁসে করা যেন পালিয়েছিল দিগন্তে 

তারপর কালো রেলগরীটা গড়-গড় করে 

ছুঁটে যাচ্ছিল দুরে ...

তার হাওয়ায় দুলছিল কাশবন...

একটা জগত যেখানে কথা বলত সবাই। 

এখন কেউ কথা বলেনা ... সবাই হাঁটছে শুধু ...

অনেক আগের সেই বিকেলে, ঘাসের যখন হলদে হয়ে উঠত 

ঠিক তোমার চেহারারী মতো ...

ওরা তখন ফিরত দিগন্ত থেকে আর আকাশে ওদেরই সাথে ...

কথা বলতে বলতে বাড়ি ফিরত পাখী আর ঘুড়ি ...

টুপ করে ডুব দিত জলে একটা একা ব্যাঙ ...

তারপর আধারের চাদর জড়াত পৃথিবী !

এখন আর রাত হয়না, ভোর  ও হয়না !

তখন আমি ছিলাম তোমার এলো চুলেরই মতো স্বাধীন।

কোন-কনে শীতের রাতে কাঁপা গলায় কেউ গান ধরত ,

আমার জানালায় দেখতাম দুরে কোথাও 

হালকা আগুনের শিখা ... কুয়াশায় ঝাঁপসা। 

অনেক অনেক আগে আকাশ অনেকটা বড় ছিল ..

দিগন্ত অনেক দুরে ছিল ..

আমি ছিলাম .. তুমি ছিলে ...

আর সবাই কত কথা বলত .

এখন সবাই হাঁটছে ... শুধুই হাঁটছে ...

ক্লান্ত হয়ে শুধুই হাঁটছে 

roj rat tomay golpo boli...

harano prithibir...

onek onek age onekgulo ghase shishir jomechhilo

surjer thanda roshmigulo ful futiyechhilo jeno

kash boner ga ghese kara jeno paliyechhilo digonte

tarpor kalo relgarita gor-gor kore

chhute jachchhilo dure...

tar haway dulchhilo kash-bon...

ekta jogot jekhane kotha bolto sobai

ekhon keu kotha bolena... sobai haatchhe sudhu...

onek ager sei bikele ghasera holde hoye uth-to

thik tomar cheharari moto...!

ora tokhon firto digonto theke, akashe oderi sathe..

kotha bolte bolte bari firto, pakhi ar ghuri...

tup kore dub dito jole... ekta bang...

tarpor adharer chador gaye prithibi chup korto!

ekhon ar rat hoyna! bhor o hoyna!

tokhon ami chhilam... tomar elo chuleri moto swadhin

kon-kone shiter rate kapa golay keu gan dhorto.

amar janlay dekhtam dure kothao,

halka aguner shikha, kuashay jhapsa.

onek onek age...akash onekta boro chhilo...

digonto onek dure chhilo...

ami chhilam .. tumi chhile...

ar sobai kotha bolto.

ekhon sobai hatchhe... sudhui haatchhe...

klanto hoye haatchhe.".
