অভিজ্ঞতাৰ সঁফুৰা .. Abhigotar Xofura: The silent plea...(in memory of those who lost their lives in Uttarakhand)

At the outset.. বাট চ'ৰাতে

Welcome to my world..

I am not a writer nor a poet. Just trying to narrate some of my experiences .. I am usually comfortable in writing in Assamese, my mother tongue. Have written few blogs in English and have tried my hands in composing few poems in Hindi too.. My Hindi speaking friends may excuse me for my audacity to do so..

মোৰ জগতলৈ আদৰিছো...
কোনো কবি সাহিত্যিক মই নহয়, কিছুমান অভিজ্ঞতাৰ বৰ্ণনা মাথোন কৰিছো ইয়াত.. মাতৃভাষা অসমীয়াতে লিখি ভাল পাওঁ যদিও ইংৰাজীতো লিখিছো.. হিন্দী ভাষাতো দুটামান কবিতা লিখিবলৈ চেষ্টা কৰি চাইছো....

The silent plea...(in memory of those who lost their lives in Uttarakhand)

I cannot harm you
Nor can I help you
I am sleeping silently
With hundred others like me,
Swept away by the sludge
Now buried under the mud,
There are also thousand others
Probably waiting just to join us,
If you call yourself a man
Try to help some if you can,
And for humanity's sake
Please give politics a break,
We saw that all our live
Now give us some respite,

From under the heap of debris

This only is our silent plea..

---Dr Makhan Lal Das (23rd June, 2013)
