ধাঁধা ।। ক্রিশ্চিনা রসেটি . . এমন একজন আছে— চোখহীন, শুধু মাথা যার, আবার এমন আছে— মুণ্ডহীন, শুধু এক চোখের সম্ভার। চেষ্টা করলে পেয়ে যাবে: জবাব ধাঁধার; বর্ণনা তামাম করো পুনরায় পড়ে, আধেক উত্তর ঝুলছে: সুতার উপরে। . . #বাঙলায়ন: #রহমানেহেনরী; #Bengalized by #RahmanHenry .

Christina Rossetti is one of my favourites! Eye without a head, hangs upon a thread is a needle. Of course, a hurricane has an eye also, but it doesn't hang upon a thread. The second one stumps me. A full stein of beer from the tap?
