Tell my tale
Snehasish Panigrahi 1998 (Jeypore)
Tell everyone how bad I am
But don't miss out the little good in me
Tell them about my gloom
But don't miss out my glee
Tell them I am a traveller
Wanderlust in my blood
I have played with fresh water
I have played with mud
Tell them I may look calm
but don't miss out my complex
Tell them I am that sea
whose every drop is vortex
Tell them my dos
Tell them my don'ts
Answer their whys
Do answer why nots
Tell everyone my story
When I am gone
