Sting me when I’m around?

এটা ব্যস্ত মৌমাখি ধৰিবলৈ

মাই কৈছিল ‘ই বিন্ধিব’

ইয়াক দিয়া উৰিবলৈ মুক্ত মনে।

ই বৰ ধুনীয়াকৈ উৰে

ই এটা ধুনীয়া শব্দ কৰে,

কেনেকৈ এনে এটা মৰম লগা বস্তুৱে 

মোক বিন্ধিব পাৰে।

Mili: That’s really a good poem. I’ll also try to write one today. Some of my drawings and paintings were published in our school magazine. Did you know that?
