jhor

Nijer poth o achena mone hoi
kothay jeno hariye jaoar bhoy
satyi mithya bichar er pala miteche
Ke jeno fireche ,ke hariyeche...

Ami to tomai chai ni
cheyechilam tomar prosroy
hothat paoa puroskar
ghore khunje fere asroy...

Bidhata ki cheyechen,ki likhechen
tumi,ami kichui ki kokhono bujhechi?
lekhar srote ki muche fela jai?
Swapno nije na holeo, dekha to satyi...

Words never mattered

If I were to love you
Once again through tides of time
If I were to feel your presence
When this world would put off all light...

I will sing along in my desolation
For the moments you belonged to me
But they are enough to spend a lifetime
Since the wounds are so deep
They will never heal.

Yet,lies motionless the unseen touch;
Speaks to me the flame of love
I may not make sense with words of heart
You knew my silence and words never mattered.

ROCKSTAR

There are books,movies,songs which touch you in a manner that words just lose meaning. Sometimes the big screen can reflect something as insignificant as our lives. May be that makes us realise the actual significance of life. The importance of some people in your life, your importance for someone else.
Rockstar is one such piece of art. This, if anyone is reading by mistake, is NOT a review. This is my space of speaking my mind and at present Rockstar engulfs my mind.
The movie is as much about rock music as I am a "communist". This is a depiction of a soul tormented by its own existence, of sacrifices which only need to be felt. It is a journey of a simple (and mind you being simple is not at all simple) boy to a person who knows the harsh realities in absolute sense. But where Rockstar triumphs is that the person understands that reality is what you choose to believe. Yes, being a sane individual, he will feel the pain of his miserable state but will find the occasional solace of living in a different world. That is where Imtiaz Ali strikes the chord.
Love, if you think too much about it, will appear to be a complicated nuisance. Actually,if you are thinking too  much, you aren't in love. The character, Jordan is as "pure" as it could have been. He just knows that the girl( who's just too loveable) is all he needs in this life.
When they are together, they are ...
What does it mean to love? There is no meaning. It really is just another world, where
                             "kaise cheenega mujhse yeh jahaan tumhe
                               tum bhi ho....kya fikar ab hume?"
these lines hold.
This is a movie on love, on inner peace( No offense Panda fans!).
Many people deserve credit for this film having such impact.
A.R.Rahman, Imtiaz Ali, Mohit Chauhan... Ranbir Kapoor( easily comparable to Aamir Khan in acting skills).
But somehow,(may be I am biased), most of the credit goes to Irshaad Kamil for the eternally blissful words.
    In our existence, we crave for certain things. But we live for our passion.
Rockstar is not a Lovely Singh or a Chammak Challo.
It, in its own right , is a blockbuster.
Isn't there a naadan parinda in each of us? Don't we all want to return to the warmth of love. Isn't love our only home?
                   In any case, if you are feeling disgusted reading all these... just remember..
      "jo bhi main..kehena chahoon...
       barbaad kare...alfaaz mere"

keu nei

r o koto poth cholte hobe?
r o koto khunjbo nijeke?
Somoy er baluchor sesh hoi krome
sob chaoa paoa mulyoheen dinante...

kichu i jeno amar na
sob paoa teo kothay jeno faki
ja chilo, ja ache sob i soman
keu nei je muche dai ankhi...

ami amar proshne klanto
jirno mon nirasroy ei shanto-chayai
bandh bhangar palai jol er bilambo
keu nei jar hridoy chui kathar dharai...

Amay Proshno Kore

lyrics and music :                SALIL CHOWDHURI
voice:                                 HEMANTA MUKHERJEE

amay prosno kore neel dhrubo tara
r koto kal ami robo disha hara
jobab kichui tar dite pari nai
sudhu poth khunje kete gelo e jibon sara...

kara jeno bhalobeshe alo jwele chilo
surjer alo tai nibhe giye chilo
nijer chayar piche
ghure ghure mori miche
ek din cheye dekhi ami tumi hara...
amay prosno kore neel dhrubo tara
r koto kal ami robo disha hara..

ami poth khunji na go
poth more khonje
mon ja bojhe na bojhe
na bujhe ta bujhi
amar chotur pashe
sob i kichu jai ashe
ami sudhu tusharito
protiheeno dhara...
amay prosno kore neel dhrubo tara
r koto kal ami robo disha hara..

A story of keys

If I had the keys
To unlock mysteries
Sixty cents a week
For a dose of History.

I don't have a name
And names end in shame
Chaos reigns in Hell
Who are we to blame?

A cup of desires in store
For the one and only whore;
The one loved from the core
Has Sun-shine along the shore...

The importance of Key-
Limits are about to flee
Singing within the tree
The Master resides in me.

বন্ধু

 ভোর-রাতে, নিঃশব্দে সময় এসেছিল পাশে  জীবনের কিছু ক্ষণ নিয়ে অণুবীক্ষণ যন্ত্রে । হাতে হাত, পুরোনো দুই বন্ধুর দেখা বহুদিন পর; হঠাৎ করেই খুঁজে...
