Your Ektara Is Moaning Still Poem by MAHTAB BANGALEE
Your Ektara Is Moaning Still
Your last footsteps stay back with us
Your soul has gone to ever walking way
Your ungovernable body is now with shroud
Here untouched hearing follows me
A dire state of mind composes night with dazed dark
I am in damp with thunder block burst
Around of me jaunty bark of hound
Lonely all here and your *Ektara of love-
Call in me with doleful compliant
I'm the salient mute of moaning
The undertaker comes to break all motion
Knocking your loving abode's door
The boatman beseeches your corpse
You are now the native of that shore
Your departure through law of nature with tears of the moon
Because your Ektara is dumb and sightless; lives in all alone

*Ektara - One Stringed Musical Instrument
From my Diary of 2009
Your departure through law of nature with tears of the moon Because your Ektara is dumb and sightless; lives in all alone.......so touching and impressive. Beautiful poem shared.
A nice gratitude to a great musician and to a lovely musical instrument.
A very good poem coming out of sadness by a young poet don't dismay life has a long way go outside and play 7.5 billions for you yet stay give them all a smile and say friends come my way smile we may and see the wonders that will happen your smile will return you will move along the shore well then what do you want more love ashore assure ye all
The boatman beseeches your corpse/You are now the native of that shore/Your departure through law of nature with tears of the moon/Because your Ektara is dumb and sightless; lives in all alone.....excellent poetic expression! A beautiful piece of work! (10)
