কাউকে করো না দায়ী কারোর বিরুদ্ধ তুমি কোরো না নালিশ কখনোই, কোন কিছুকেই দায়ী কোরো না কখনো; কারণ জীবনে তুমি যা চেয়েছ তা-ই তুমি করেছ মূলত। মেনে নাও নির্মানের অন্তরায় আর নিজেকে শোধরানোর শুরুর সাহস। ভুলের ভস্ম থেকে উঠে আসে প্রকৃত মানুষের সফলতা। কখনো কোরো না দায়ী নিয়তি ও একাকিত্বকে মোকাবেলা করো সব সাহসের সঙ্গে। যেকোনভাবেই হোক-এ তোমারই কাজের ফসল, তুলে ধরো নিয়ত জয়ের লক্ষণ। নিজের ব্যার্থতায় তিক্ত হোয়ো না আর অন্যের কাঁধে তাকে দিয়ো না চাপিয়ে, এই বেলা মেনে নাও কিংবা শিশুর মতো

To Her Steady Lover - Poem by Jibanananda Das There is no meaning in living—I don't say this. There is meaning for some, may be for all—may be a perfect meaning. Yet I hear the white sound of wind-driven birds In the water of the distant seas beneath the burning summer sun. The candle burns slowly, very slowly, on my table; The books of intellect are more still—unwavering— lost in meditation; Yet when you go out on to the streets or even while sitting by the window side Will you sense the frenzied dance of violent waters; Right beside that a book of your cheeks; no more like a lantern, Perhaps like a conch-shell lying on the beach as if ocean's father It is also a music by his own merit—like Nature: caustic—lovable—finally like the most favourite entity. So I get the taste of expansive wind in the airing of maddening grievances; Otherwise in the mind's forest the python coils up around the doe: I feel the pitiable hint of a life like that in the Sceptre of protest. Some glacier-cold still flock of Cormorants will realize my words; When the electric-compass of life will cease They will eat up snow-grey sleep like polar seas in endless grasp.
