The Girl Who had Her Own Voice


 

The girl who had her own voice-

The world turned upside down for her, 

Tried to choke her throat, 

Silence her, 

Pause her, 

Interrupt her words, 

The girl who had original ideas, 

The world tried to steal,

And, ignore her existence.

The girl that had her own charm and knew no manipulative tactics, 

Nobody uplifted her but she never stopped,

She had her own ways.

She had a silent strength that could melt thousand rocks in heydays. 

She was fumbled yet remained so humble,

She knew how to make starry nights shine in the milky-way!

The girl who had her own voice was never liked by the crowd, 

Yet a crowd  follows her, 

The girl who had her own turmoil,

Who knew no pretense was shunned down.

Because they knew her magic, 

They knew what she was capable of, 

The universe stood beside her, 

Not a people pleaser, not a go getter, 

But, God's favourite lamb she was! 

She doesn't compete, she performs, 

She doesn’t rely, she acts on her own, 

And, rewrites history that she will be a part of, 

If you are with her then you are too a part, 

And, if you are against her then the world remembers.

  কবি ফারহিন আক্তার ভূঁইয়া ন্যান্সি জন্মেছেন মরুভূমির দেশ আমিরাতের ফুজেরার দিব্বা শহরে। বাবা ফজলুল হক ভূঁইয়ার চাকুরি সূত্রে দুবাইতে অবস্থান করেছেন অর্ধেক জীবন। ফারহিন ন্যান্সি , দেশে এসে পড়াশুনা করছেন বর্তমানে , ঢাকা বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের সমাজবিজ্ঞান বিভাগের স্নাতকোত্তর পর্যায়ে। ছোটবেলা থেকে লেখালেখির সাথে সম্পৃক্ত কবির বেশ কয়টি লেখা কবিতা প্রকাশিত হয়েছে বিভিন্ন পত্র - পত্রিকা , লিটয় ম্যাগাজিনগুলো এবং সংকলনে। ইউএসএইড ২০১৯ - এ সেরা পঞ্চাশ গল্পরচিয়তার মধ্যে স্থান পেয়েছেন। এছাড়াও , বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের সাহিত্য সাময়িকীসহ , ব্লগে নিয়মিত লেখেন। বাংলা - কবিতা ডটকমে বেশ সরব ছিলেন। দেশ্মাতৃকাকে ভালোবেসে , দেশ ও মাটির মানুষের জন্যে উনি গভীর অন্তর্দৃষ্টি দিয়ে দর্শনসমৃদ্ধ কবিতা রচয়ন করেন। মানুষের মুক্তি ও উত্তরণ তার লেখালেখির উদ্দেশ্য।                   শিল্পীর মৃত্যু                   ...

Ache in my body

Image
  My lips ache as if they want to be bitten  and smitten in your love and admiration. My hips swirl in ache as if they want to twirl  around you, dance in motion. My heart is in ache as if it doesn't know where   it belongs, to whom, My eyes are in pain, they are numb and sore. They say your eyes are beautiful like droplets of dews, Like diamonds in the sky. But, only a few knows how much tears it shed, Shed like an ocean. I have cried in pain like a destitute losing all her belongings, I have cried in pain like a beggar begging for an alms of love and warmth. I have cried like a Jew, a refugee Muslim for a bit of shelter in a foreign land, I have cried like a blind person for a bit of compassion and an ounce of aid. I have cried and whimpered in pain like an impaired person for quick recovery, I have cried like an infant hungry for love and needing to cling to somebody. I have cried an ocean for my lost ones whom I loved dearly, I have cried in agony, realizing...

Cyber Colonialism

  We are now trapped in the waves of 'Cyber-Colonialism',  The watchdogs are watching us,  We are under the 'Juju' of the 'Reikies' consuming us,  Yes, indeed, we are also consuming what they are feeding us,  The unseen wires have draped us, We can't utter a word against them,  We are monitored,  We can't spread  dictation as the dictators are dictating us- through cyber binoculars,  Where they can prevent any portrayals different from them,  Where they pick their secret 'bot armies' and influencers handing over fame,  Only for them to be the handlers of the fate, Fate of mass people,  People who will believe what they say,  People who will do what they inspire them to do -whatever they have conspired in the closed doors, People will rise, People will die, People will loose hope, People will flee, People will gather,  People will be displaced, People will be lost, People will be punished for speaking their truth!...
