Khondoker Shajahan Raj Biography

They ask me why I fade and pine,
And seem oppressed with woe?
They say what care now can be mine,
To cloud my youthful brow?
...

Oh, when I was in love with you,
Then I was clean and brave,
And miles around the wonder grew
How well did I behave.
...

It was never so easy to say-
The change you made;
If I am alive now, then I was dead.
...

I, the Bengali poet, Raj-
Captured in the arrogant garage,
Be surrounded with the windy quarter howl
Linnet searching face, mind, everywhere crawl
...

I left my body unfed
I lost in the numbness of conscience
I got myself a total love-less
I left my one eye frenzied.
