Jahidul Huq

Nurul Hoque 1965 (Comilla)



Extracting the rhythm of earth's axis and city's soul,
Poet Jahidul Huq weaves the melody of songs,
Breaking those infrangible walls between shrines
His heart is still unbroken in the shattered world.

The Dakatiya river flows beside  Akdiyaa village.
Alamgir knows his glory, I recall him with my breath.
Eyes are not of crystal, but tears of love are born
And I proudly compose an octave with my pen.
