Posted on 2nd October 2020: May we meet after our victory

 

Bengali poet Jibananada Das wrote this about 75 years ago:

We will meet again after the pandemic,

May we meet after our victory,

We will meet after the virus sleeps,

We will meet on a green morning,

We will meet at the other side of sorrow,

We will meet in a city of  joy,

We will meet ahead of the lines of our palm,

We will meet in the morning light,

We will meet when Science wins,

We will meet when we conquer death,

We will meet just like we met before,

May we meet again in a rejuvenated city.

Shubhprabhat
