"বিষণ্ণতা"(Sadness) by PRONAY PAL

 মোটর গাড়ি রাস্তা জুড়ে, শব্দ দূষণ ছড়াচ্ছে মনে;  Cars rushing down the streets,   spreading noise pollution in the mind; বৃষ্টি না আসায় চাতক পাখির জল জমেছে চোখের কোণে। The Jacobin Cuckoo, with parched eyes, waits for the rain that doesn't come.  চারিদিকে চিৎকার, হাহাকার, বিষণ্ণ জীবন, যৌবন  Surrounded by cries, clamour, and despair, a gloomy life, youth recalled. ফিরে দেখা শৈশব, ধোঁয়াশার মতন। Looking back at childhood, like a haze.

"অন্তরের বিদ্রোহ" (Rebellion Within) by PRONAY PAL

আমি বিদ্রোহী নই, তবু অন্তরে গর্জে উঠি। I am not a rebel, yet my heart roars within. লেবু চিপে ভাত দিয়ে খাই, সকালবেলায় ব্যাগটা নিয়ে অফিসে ছুটি। I squeeze lemons over rice and leave for work in the morning.   দেয়ালে টাঙানো পাড়ার মোড়ে খবরের কাগজ পড়ে শুরু করি দিন। At the corner of the lane, reading the newspaper, I start my day anew. আমি বিদ্রোহী নই, তবু অন্তরে গর্জে উঠি। I am not a rebel, yet my heart roars within.
