Elegy for Cholesh Richil
- Nirmalendu Gun
- Nirmalendu Gun
This fiery, painful March
Gave birth to an unstable freedom
This time reveals true meaning of "independence"
For all? Or again thrown into crisis
Cholesh left Modhupur and arrived
At death's poisonous door
Gave birth to an unstable freedom
This time reveals true meaning of "independence"
For all? Or again thrown into crisis
Cholesh left Modhupur and arrived
At death's poisonous door
Becoming "famous" only as a corpse
Who are you Cholesh Richil? Really who are you?
Will the world defend your killers
Will it absolve, we wait to see
The power to kill at will
Death may come for that cruel man God

And coming in like a hero with raised hand
Bengal's poet giving him this elegy
