Abani Bari Achho

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Abani Bari Achho (Bengali: অবনী বাড়ি আছো Ôboni Baŗi Achho) is a poem by Shakti Chattopadhyay. It is considered one of the iconic poems of modern Bengali poetry. It is included in his seminal early collection ধর্মেও আছো জিরাফেও আছো Dhôrmeo achho jirafeo achho (You love giraffes, you love religion), published in 1965.

In Bengali script
অবনী বাড়ি আছো
দুয়ার এঁটে ঘুমিয়ে আছে পাড়া
কেবল শুনি রাতের কড়ানাড়া
'অবনী, বাড়ি আছো?'

বৃষ্টি পড়ে এখানে বারোমাস
এখানে মেঘ গাভীর মতো চরে
পরান্মুখ সবুজ নালিঘাস
দুয়ার চেপে ধরে--
'অবনী, বাড়ি আছো?'

আধেকলীন হৃদয়ে দূরগামী
ব্যথার মাঝে ঘুমিয় পড়ি আমি
সহসা শুনি রাতের কড়ানাড়া
'অবনী, বাড়ি আছো?'

In Romanization
Ôboni baŗi achho
Duar ẽţe ghumie achhe paŗa
Kebol shuni rater kôŗanaŗa
"Ôboni, baŗi achho?"

Brishţi pôŗe ekhane baromash
Ekhane megh gabhir môto chôre
Pôranmukh shobuj nalighash
Duar chepe dhôre
"Ôboni, baŗi achho?"

Adheklin hridôee durgami
Bêthar majhe ghumie poŗi ami
Shôhosha shuni rater kôŗanaŗa,
"Ôboni, baŗi achho?"

Translation
Abani, are you in
The neighbourhood lies in sleep with doors closed
But I keep hear the night knocking at my door,
"Abani, are you in?"

Here it rains all the time
Here the clouds roam like cows
Here the green grass
closes in on the door,
"Abani, are you in?"

In my heart, halfhearted, long-travelled
I fall asleep through my pain
Suddenly I hear the night knocking at my door,
"Abani, are you in?"
