For ages long, they stood in prayer, Debating how to voice it there. A single word, aloud, or soft-low? A question many wish to know. You may see some pointless fights, A trivial thing, many wasted nights. Please look again, and look within, There lies a love beneath the skin....
By the path where Palash blooms in red, The Shimul laughs on branches overhead. The spring breeze swirls in a drunken high, As crimson dust paints the evening sky. The time has come for withered leaves to part, As budding greens sing to the weary heart. From hidden shades,the Cuckoo’s...
The light of day begins to fade, As shadows fall in silent shade. Beside the shore where rivers flow, The breath of spring begins to grow. The forest’s hum has died away, Where golden sunbeams used to play. Through leafy veils, the starlight gleams, To light the corners of my...
As the star of your destiny ascended to shine It lifted and brought you from Abyssinia to Hijaz This alone made inhabited your desolate house Better than a thousand freedoms is your slavery That threshold not even for a moment you could leave In some one’s Love all torments you...
They say the poor have no address, No shining name, no costly dress. While towers rise in golden pride, Their silent tears the rich still hide. Listen close—can you hear the cry, Of hungry souls as days pass by? No helping hand, no charity shown— Then why is all this...
When death is inevitable, die fighting on, For with the fall of oppression, a new dawn is born. No matter how deep the darkness may grow, The light never stops, it continues to glow. Those who walk the path of truth never truly fall, In courage – not fear –...
O Hadi, the song of justice, inscribed in your blood, Resonates within my chest, a life in rising flood. You were the thunder’s roar, the strength of this land, Against the dark aggression, a defiant, mighty stand. I fear no rain of bullets, no bombs, nor demon’s might, I’ll shake...
Haven’t seen much of this mold Though most of these are darned and cold Here every breath ends in perish Will those dreams of mine persist to cherish? Here a day seems like an eternity A moment of seconds strikes as nullity. Here I find no one as my salvage...
My heart is heavy, peace feels far, A memory burns like a fading star. One year ago, this very July, We watched our brothers bleed and die. The world may count just thirty-one, But for us, July extended thirty-six long. Each one written in fire and tears, Etched with pain,...
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of skies, Made the earth and gave us the eyes. With the Light, sent His Messenger, Guides to the Light, wills whomever. Beloved never cursed those who fell, He knew their hearts, knew them well. He raised them kindly when strayed, Led them back...
Sleep, little friend, close your eyes, The stars will smile in quiet skies. No more books and no more pen, You’ll never have homework again. Your bag is still, your shoes at rest, Heaven will hold you best. The fire was loud but you’re now free, No more fear and...
Each drop is tearing my world apart Shaded cloudy sky’s gazing at my eyes With every breath I’m lightening my heart Blazing thunders retaliate my sighs. Whimsical breeze whispers to me I stand alone and listen to its miseries, Faraway somewhere I see a man standing Looking out for his...
Fear resides within, Dark power engulfs the sane. No one to speak, no one to see, Allowing all to endure the pain. O, freedom, where you escaped? Thee is seeking you at the verge of our breath. Hence no one to stand tall, no one to act, The hyenas are...
When one creation leads to another There’s nothing that can bother. A sketch can turn into a poetry A picture can evolve into a story. A photograph may turn into a novel A painting can be time travel. A beaded earring can make someone smile Even if that is for...
Thirty-six days of blood and storm, A revolution in youthful form. Classes stopped, but lessons grew— In every chant, a future knew. They banned our words, they shut down net, But courage rose where fear was set. We saw our brothers disappear, Yet never once collapsed in fear. From Dhaka’s...
When I come to you for shelter on a rainy day Please don’t push me away. If I’m wet, shivering, my paws slip on the way Please don’t push me away. I may meow, or bark, even I’m scared of the dark Remember, I’m a life too, not a toy...
Hey bro, hey listen, listen carefully— It’s July, and the heat isn’t just from the sun. The whole country feels like it’s about to explode, It should, cause we’ve been quiet for too long. Merit means nothing if you don’t have connections, Dreams get crushed under corruption’s directions. Before leaving...
A leaf from a tree does fall, When its time is up and done. A cell in the body does stall, When its course is run and gone. A program runs inside them, A script of death and decay. A signal triggers the system, A switch that says: “Go away.”...
I’d rather have one real friend Instead of a thousand fake ones. I’d rather count my own blessings Instead of being jealous of others. I’d rather be happy with little Instead of asking for too much. I’d rather care for myself Focus on being the real me, People only judge...
One came with the sunrise, A new river formed from melting ice. Now the sun is setting once again, Creating frozen ice in time’s domain. Clean water brought life with thrill, Sun rays showed the future for the reed. But the setting sun has brought disappointment— Is darkness going to...
