Subho Nababarsha, 1404


aaj poila baisakh, bangla natun bochor, posaki naam `nababarsa'. Bisakha nakshatra-er naam anujai ae baisakh mas. aaj theke 1404 bongabdo suru holo.

chaitra-er udasi haowar pata jharar din ses. gache gache natun kachi pata, nana ronger phuler mela. simul, palas o krishna-chura gaachguli seje- guje bose aache. sei gan-guli mone pore ki? `aaj krishno-churar abir niey aakash khele holi', athaba `jani tomar jonneye oe aronneye polash hoeiche lal'! kal-baisakhi-o tar pala sango kore chole galo.

nababarsa manei bangalir utsab. ingreji notun bochore amra sadharonoto notun jamakapor pori na, pori ae nababorse. bikel holei dhuti- panjabi, o tanter sarir bahar, songe sugandha o belphuler mala. ae dintite sob ma-der ichhe kore barite ektu paies hok, hok ektu ghee-bhat. bikele abar hal-khatar nemontonno, sekhaneo to jete hobe.

sob kichu chapiey ghum-bhanga bhor theke raat porjonto kaner kache gun gun kore sei sada dari-wala baul manusti, neche neche gaye cholechen-


                           `muche jaak glani,ghuche jak jora,

                           agni-snane suchi hok dhora'...
gajoner o choroker dhhak, aar bholebaba-r ganer songe sob mile mishe ek hoye gache.

amar porichita o oporichita je jekhane aachen, sakalei bhalo thakun, sustho thakun ae kamona janiey ses kori.
