পাঁচটি ধাপের জীবনযাপন - নিখাদ অঙ্কে ভরা -
অভিজ্ঞতার মাপকাঠিতে - হাজার হাজার পাতা!
অস্তিত্বের চর্চা শেখায় - দক্ষতা অর্জন;
লক্ষ্য শুধুই - কার্যকারণে - অসীম সাবলীলতা!

এ জন্মের স্মৃতি হইবে লোপাট অনেক শতক পরে -
মরবো আগে! তারও পরে, প্রায় চারশো বছর প্রেতজীবনের শেষে;
প্রেত হয়ে শুধু দেখবো আমি - দিচ্ছে কারা গালি -
(আর) বাজায় কারা এই নোটেশন - আনন্দে, অক্লেশে!

"আমার প্রাপ্য রেকগনিশন - পাবো মরার পরে?
হয়তো বা প্রেত - পরজন্মের পিতা কিংবা শিশু?"
এই পৃথিবীর কজন মানুষ - তন্ত্রসাধনা বোঝে?
আড়ম্বরের নেই প্রয়োজন - কর্ম হইলে সু ... !
