Eternal

SIDDIQUE MAHMUDUR RAHMAN

One single country
Was tortured, neglected, oppressed, and deceived
One Country. For many a hundred years
The Arians, Non-Arians, Shaks, the Huns, Pathans, Mughals-
Many foreign rulers misappropriated
For two hundred years the English traders
Took this country by chewing, sucking, licking and swallowing.
For twenty four years
The Panjabees tormented in the name of religion.
Only one man rose against all these
Raising his head high and lifting his finger, said, ‘This Struggle . . .
And with this seventy five million people became united.
A War of nine months was decisive at his instruction and
This country became liberated.
This country is Bangladesh
This person is Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
Invincible. Eternal.

Due to shrewd conspiracy
That country has lost
Its blazing leader.
This person is Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
Invincible. Eternal.
