Letter 9

“6^th November, 2014.

Dear S__________

I’ll just get to the point, love! Apologies if there’s any mistake!

“ Taake peyechilam!

Ajana kono aaborte noy, shwopneo noy.

Taake peyechilam shonddher aakashe,

Peyechilam janalar kaanche brishtir phontaaye.

Khuje peyechilam take purono boiyer

Holoud paataye.

Kokhono shey jibonanoder bonolota sen,

Kokhono shey Browinger Porphyria!

Naa, shey aasheni cigarette dhonyaye,

Aashto na teto moder shwade;

Taar bhalo lagto naa.

Shey aashto poore jaoa dupurer rode,

Aadh bheja bikeler meghe,

Aashto, eka chhade jokhon aami

Thaktam eka. Petaam taar buker

Aalto norom choyaa.

Shey aashto aamar obaantor boka boka kobitay,

Taar maatha aamar kaandhe, aar amar kobita taar thonte.

Hain, take peyechilam.

Naam jaanina taar,

Taai taake daaktam

Bohemian bole!. ””

There! You wanted a bangla poem for you, here it is! Happy? Boddo aabdar hoyche tomaar!... (okay fine, your aabdars are basically what my poems are! You know that pretty well!)

 Please  mind the handwriting, it’s been ages since I wrote anything in bangla, maybe there are some silly mistakes.

Oh and, are you going to get bald or what? I have thought a name for you! Taklu bahadur!

It’s late, around 2! So, I will write more later!

Until 6^th then!

Love!
