কণ্ঠ আমার রুদ্ধ আজিকে , বাঁশি সংগীতহারা ,                  অমাবস্যার কারা লুপ্ত করেছে আমার ভুবন দুঃস্বপনের তলে ,                  তাই তো তোমায় শুধাই অশ্রুজলে — যাহারা তোমার বিষাইছে বায়ু , নিভাইছে তব আলো , তুমি কি তাদের ক্ষমা করিয়াছ , তুমি কি বেসেছ ভালো ।

I am told many in Bangladesh want to change their national anthem. I wish them well. While they may do so I can say without a doubt that Rabindranath can never be erased from every Bengali’s heart. 🇧🇩

心无畏惧，昂首挺胸

My father had taken me to the Golden Temple enroute to the mountains. I was so mesmerised by what I saw that when my father asked me to compose and sing a poem I translated to bangla “Gagan mein thaal” penned by Guru Nanak Dev!

Just another PTM Happy Birthday Jawahar!

😬

Yes Diljit you are right. Guru Nanak Dev’s bhajan is indeed the World Anthem!

😊

My all time favourite ☺️

Happy birthday Faiz!

While visiting Shantiniketan Mahata saw me having loochi & said ghee fried flour was ‘poison’. I replied ‘It must be a very slow poison. I have been eating it for almost half a century now!’

এসো হে বৈশাখ, এসো, এসো। যাক পুরাতন স্মৃতি,. যাক ভুলে যাওয়া গীতি,. যাক পুরাতন স্মৃতি,. যাক ভুলে যাওয়া গীতি,. অশ্রুবাষ্প সুদূরে মিলাক যাক, যাক ☺️

THE WORLD today is wild with the delirium of hatred, the conflicts are cruel and unceasing in anguish, crooked are its paths, tangled its bonds of greed. All creatures are crying for a new birth of thine, O Thou of boundless life, save them, rouse thine eternal voice of hope!

Sadhu! Sadhu!

In Jana Gana Mana I started with “Punjab” and ended with “Banga”. Hear my favourite song “Tumi Robe Nirobe” sung by a Punjabi band “Sanam”

Voter list revision in Bihar, just ahead of elections. Is this the beta test for CAA-NRC??

Hmmmmmm. In 2026 can we expect the beard back?

Sadhu sadhu!
