Jibotish Das's poem IN THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT ( Translation of 'Rater Andhokarey' )

Close friends all
one by one from my side
in the darkness of night
disappeared !

Like innumerable stars
the night which is completely dark.
Lightning streaks,
river water wail upwards
the same terror engulfs
snatches off, so many days'
carefully nurtured priceless life.

In silence one has to bid Ta Ta in night's darkness
to proceed to distant stars.
