Helen Rema Poems

Valobasha bojho?
Valobasha bojhar moto mon manoshikota tomar nei.
Jemon tomar rokte nei mansuher rokter laal rokto Konica,
Manusher vetorer monushotto!
...

I am an invisible feeling,
I am an invisible blue spirit,
...

I am beseeching in the land of thoughts without any kingdom of my own,
Without any want, without any gain, in an island surrounded by the foes;
Without the artilleries, the armour or the sword,
For winning the battle;
...

Choloman shomoyer boaye cholar seshe kaaler biborton.
Khon jay, din jay, shondha namey, raat aashe,
Prokriti, jogot, bishaw vrommando, nirob, nistobdo
Shudhu jege thake otripto- ottacharito manober artonaad o dirghosash!
...

Pathore Jodi pani thake ta bojha ba dekha jayna
Hridoaye Jodi kobita thake, ta hridoayei thake shupto;
Nirbak manusher obak koray cheye thaka chokhe,
Bhese othey tar na bolte para onuvuti guli;
...

God in heaven,
God in earth,
God in universe,
Omniscient.
...

When I don't have the mood,
I just gazed and looked,
When I don't have the mood,
I was thinking whether I should have left
...

Blues blues blues,
Blues are my reality,
Blues are my entity,
Blues are my sanctity,
...

I love my life,
I love my surroundings;
The trees, the birds, the flowers,
The limitations and bindings.
...

Hahahahahaha!
What an irony of life!
When you are alive you need flowers,
When you are dead you need flowers too,
...
