Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul. - William Ernest Henley
“Out of the night that covers me,

My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years

“ফিরে এল হারানো কবিতা”
ছোট বেলায় যখন আমি ক্লাস ওয়ান কি টু তে পড়ি, আব্বা প্রায়ই কবিতাটা বিড় বিড় করে আবৃত্তি করতেন। আমি তাঁর ভরাট কন্ঠে আবৃত্তি শুনতাম মন্ত্রমুগ্ধের মত। অর্থও জিজ্ঞাসা করতাম না। বুঝতামও না।
আস্তে আস্তে বড় হলাম। সময় আর বয়সের ঠেলায় আব্বাও আর আবৃত্তি করেন না। কবিতাটাও কালক্রমে হারিয়ে গেল আমার স্মৃতি থেকে।
হঠাৎ সেদিন Nelson Mandela’র জীবননির্ভর মুভি Invictus দেখার সময় Morgan Freeman এর কন্ঠে কবিতাটা শুনেই আঁতকে উঠলাম। এটাই সেই কবিতা, যা ম্যান্ডেলাকে তাঁর কারারুদ্ধ ২৭ বছরের জীবনে অনুপ্রেরণা যুগিয়েছিল প্রবলভাবে। নেট থেকে সাথে সাথে নামিয়ে পড়ে ফেললাম।
কবিতাটি গত কয়েকদিনে অন্তত শ'খানেক বার পড়া হয়ে গেছে ইতোমধ্যে।
যতবারই পড়ি না কেন, ততবারই নতুনভাবে অনুপ্রেরণা পাই কনফিডেন্টলি বেঁচে থাকার। এগিয়ে চলার।
ফিরে এল ঝরা কবিতা। আমার শৈশবের হারিয়ে যাওয়া কবিতা। সত্যিই,
We are the masters of our fate:
We are the captains of our soul.
Really...
গত প্রবারণায় তোলা।

Basabo, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
P.S.: I've changed my screen name from 'Poet of the Fall' to 'Invictus'. Apologizing for the confusion.
Black-billed Magpie (Pica hudsonia) Robert Lake, Kelowna, BC.
I took the shot with one hand while I spoke on my iPhone with the other. I was pretty sure he wasn't going to stay long, so I took the photos with one hand and didn't worry too much about settings....
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate :
I am the captain of my soul.

Explored No. 448
Part 1 of 2 in a meta series on the theme of "being alone in a crowd." This half is about seeking solitude, the other is about loneliness.
For me solitude implies choosing to be alone, choosing to stand out from the crowd.
