She is like my grandma. She looks as if she is saying:
tora ato gondogol koris na to. toder jwalay ektu bishram nite partasi na. chupchap thakte paros na kisukkhon? khaisos, ekhon ghuma. oto lafanir ki hoise? bandrami kom kor. oi pulapan, maramari koris na. shanto hoia shuia thak. ar ta jodi na paros taile ami choila jaitasi. dekhi ektu shantite kothao bishram nite pari ki na. toder moto bandor der sathe ar thaka jaitase na.
Whatever your Grandma said, went right over my cerebral case. Nevertheless that communication was appreciated.
Dear taslima,You give me a chance to recall my childhood,thanking you for this beautiful blog.
Thanks ma’m for sharing this. People like me who are familiar with your mother tongue will find it as an absolute fun.
People who do not know Bengali language – Please find below the translation in English. It could probably give you a little touch of the above verse written by Taslima.
” She is like my grandma. She looks as if she is saying:
Do not make so much of noise kids. I can’t rest because of your chirp. Can’t you guys hold your horses for some time? Take a nap after lunch. Why you need to jump around here and there like monkeys? Stop fighting each other. Be quiet and rest for some time. And if you can’t do that, I’ll disperse from here. You would make me look for another place to take a little nap. You monkeys would not let me be in peace for a while. “
Sincere thanks Yanja.
LONG LIVE THE PRIMATES!
Although, gramama could use a cat nap. n_n; Ah~ Family. Can’t live with ’em, can’t live without ’em.
Ha ha, it was so much fun to read your grandma’s speech! I hope you kids did calm down and allow her to rest.
Actually…
“Oh my God. I’m back. I’m home. All the time, it was… We finally really did it… You Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!”
