People of Bengal for Rohingya
Ro Mayyu Ali
RB Poem
June 16, 2018
What a humanity!
What the warm hands you people provide
For those who escaped for lives
Crossing the Naf in haste
With the pierced-bullet in little bodies
You people receive and link us accessing
Through the gate of your hearts
Ah! What a thrill!
What a tenderness!
What the sweet smiles you bloom
For those who're panic and traumatised
Behind the scenario of mass killing and gang rape
You embrace us with required necessities
Waiting nearby border in broad daylight
Ah! What a compassion!
What a morality!
How generous you are!
For those whose homes were burnt to ash
And escaping the death
You welcome us
In your open arms and hearts
And give refuge for a million
Ah! What a kindness!
Your Bengal is its own needs
But your hearts are enough huge
Your nation is not enough rich
But your contribution to humanity is unique
Though you people look different
In tongues and culture
You make us feel comfortable.
You make us feel physical safety.
You're the example of humanity.
In sense of everlasting resolution
Your comrade and respect are
To be the key solving this humanitarian crisis
Your sincere integration is
To be the knot of our safe and dignified return
We've been fled and back many times
This time should be the last ever
That's what we mean
Coming into your kind bosoms
In great humane neighbourly tie of
Rohingya and people of Bengal
* On behalf of Rohingya community, a heartfelt thank from the poet, himself a Rohingya refugee to the people and government of Bangladesh who has been providing the refuge for a million of Rohingya refugees in their land.*
