Durneeti(Corruption)
Chandan Boruah
corruption durneeti what do you think about it
uh this is intense yo!
toka poisa mathu xopun hobo paribo ni
xomaje nokoi kyonu mone mone thaake kobo nwari
aji jiyaay asu jodi ha moi dhon neki?
muku koboloi diya, kosto kora dhonor mulyo ki?
//can only money be anyone’s dream?
why is society silent, we can’t know!
If I am living today, am I wealth/money?
Let me also speak, what is the value of money earned by hard work!
yate durneeti aji hoklu dikhe suke kune
kyonu baru eku nokoru ami,asu mone mone
prithivi misa hobo pare neki porom hotyo
xoru bure dekhi kinu hikiboloi paise kosto
//here(our province) corruption today is in every direction, every nook and corner
Why don’t we do anything about it, we are silent
Can this world be so unreal, it is in fact a truth
what do the kids learn from this, only pain
hook:
ami jodi jiyaay asu, amar hiya kopi ase
ami jodi hosa koisu, amar kinu kosto hoise
jodi misak hosa koisu, amar kinu dukh ase
jodi hosak misa koisu, amar kinu hukh ase
jodi akoxoloi sua,tora dekhiboloi paba
jodi amar hyat sua, tumi morom lobo para
morom jodi nalage tene kinu dibo paru
porom hotyo kotha kou misa kobo nuwaru
//if we are living, then our hearts are shaking(burning)
if we are speaking truth, what pain do we get?
if we make lies as truth, then what is our sorrow
if we make truth as lies, then what is our happiness
if you look into the sky, you get to see stars
(Similarly) if you look into our hearts, you can take some love
if you do not need love then what can i give
i speak the truth, I cant lie.
ketyaba misa matiboloi beya nalaga hoi jai
teneke dukhor upori dukh aru kinu baru pai
eneke misa kotha support kori dile kinu pabo
hosa kothar kunu mulyo ekebaare naikya hobo
//sometimes speaking lies doesn’t feel bad anymore
that time you get pain after pain and what else?
this way if you support lies what will you get?
truth will have no value anymore
xorute hikisilu je bharot swadhin nasil
baapu hokolure kostot freedom anibo paril
kintu ami hey freedom grohon kora nai aji
jodi corruption hojyo kori thaku soku mudi
//when I was kid I learned that India wasn’t free
Baapu(Gandhi) and everyones’ (freedom fighters) pain brought freedom
But we aren’t taking the freedom
If we tolerate corruption with eyes shut
hook:
ami jodi jiyaay asu, amar hiya kopi ase
ami jodi hosa koisu, amar kinu kosto hoise
jodi misak hosa koisu, amar kinu dukh ase
jodi hosak misa koisu, amar kinu hukh ase
jodi akoxoloi sua,tora dekhiboloi paba
jodi amar hyat sua, tumi morom lobo para
morom jodi nalage tene kinu dibo paru
porom hotyo kotha kou misa kobo nuwaru
//look above.
