Don’t make the poet sad
Don’t make the poet sad! If the poet cries, the flowers will not bloom, the moon will not rise to the sky!
Don’t make the poet sad! If the poet is sad, the birds will stop not singing.
All the flowers will fall and the flower garden will be empty.
Don’t make the poet sad, if you make him sad, the leaves of the tree will fall, there will be no freshness in the world.
Don’t make the poet sad, if he makes him sad there will be no love.
The rains will cease and eternal thirst will appear on Earth.
Don’t make the poet sad. If you make him sad, the stars from the sky will fall, all the mountain springs will stop!
Do not make the poet sad, if you make him sad, the flute will not play, the laughter will cease with the crying.
Do not make the poet sad, if you make him sad you will not find happiness, all the rivers will die and the world will become a desert.
Don’t make the poet sad, if the poet gets sad and says oh oops, all the honey in the hive will turn into poison.
Don’t make the poet sad, if the poet cries when he is sad,
All the lights will go out and the sun and moon will be eclipsed.
Don’t make the poet sad, if you make him sad, the world will suffer a great loss.
All butterflies will die in storms.
Don’t make the poet sad, if you make him sad, the snake will release his poisonous breath.
People will feel disappointed and lose faith in people.
Don’t make the poet sad, if the poet is sad, the boat will drown in the middle river,
Why do you want to bring destruction to the world with pain?
I want you
Md. Sadiqur Rahman Rumen
I Everywhere I go I look.
Just want you!
I sleep like a pillow next to you, I want close you.
I want to see your face first when I wake up in the morning.
In the morning you and I want to sit side by side, laughing, sipping hot tea.
I just want you morning afternoon noon evening.
When I sit down to eat, I want your hand-cooked food!
I want you give me a plate of food.
I want you by my side in bathing, meditation, sleep, awakening.
I want you by my side to read and write.
I want to take you anywhere.
I want to come back and call your name to open the door.
I want the door of my house to be opened in your name.
I want to see your smiling face when I open the door.
Isolation (Lockdown)
I have kept the window closed and the door must be opened; Opening the door now brings fear, doubt and fear of epidemic infection.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw outside a cruel festival of riots and beatings.
As soon as I opened the door, I heard the rat and cat running.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the arrogance and bravado of cunning and power.
As soon as I opened the door, I heard school councils, group conversations, yelling, fighting, confrontations.
When I opened the door, I saw the fear of people helpless in the face of danger.
As soon as I open the door, I see clouds and lightning. As soon as I open the door, I meet the enemy.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the pain and tears at the loss of honor and dignity.
When I opened the door, I saw the street vendor’s face, his eyes fixed on the pages of the newspaper. There is no good news, so much bad news.
No one is at peace, everyone is restless.
When I opened the door I saw firearms.
As in a solar eclipse, the sun has blended with the darkness.
Now the chest shakes when you open the door.
Now I sit in the room after closing the door.
Nothing happened to me
I wanted to do a lot of penance and struggle in life!
How much income do I want to earn in my life!
I wanted to give up personal interest in philanthropy!
In my life I wanted to learn to read and write.
How many transactions did you want in life!
I wanted to do social service and charity in life!
I want to fight on behalf of the oppressed against tyranny!
In my life, I wanted to mix with the people of the towns and cities.
How many times in my life have I wanted to continue trying to establish the truth and destroy false opinions!
How much discussion and criticism in my life I wanted to give a speech!
How much I wanted to be in life, how high I wanted to sit!
How much I wanted to achieve in life!
How many times in my life have I wanted to sing, have I wanted to play the flute!
How many rivers and seas I want to cross in life! How many forests, mountains, shadows, parallel desert roads I wanted to travel in life!
How many things I want to give to people in life!
In the end nothing happened in my life-
I couldn’t be a leader, a hero, a singer, an artist, a saint, a monk, a poet, a writer, an artist, a researcher, a doctor, an engineer!
life for me,
A younger boy’s hands melted like ice cream.
LOVE
Love means you and me
Love is not me but you are precious
Love means acceptance
Each other’s madness.
Love means unconditional forgiveness of mistakes
Love means I gave
you everything!
I have not deposited anything.
Love means you get hurt
I die of poison pain!
Love means your happiness
I wish,
Love means seeking each other’s way
Love means you get something
I got it too.
Love means I won’t eat if you don’t eat
Love means if you don’t go, I won’t go either.
Love means gain and loss
half share
Love means mutual affection.
Love means blue sky
Moon, sun and billions of stars
Love means equality
Sharer of happiness and sorrow.
Love means secret
Talking to each other.
Love means holding hands to hand,
Walking alongside.
