বাংলা ভাষা

By -
বাংলা এমন একটি ভাষা,
যে ভাষা বক্তাকে দেয় স্বাধীনতা;
ভাব প্রকাশের,
ব্যাক্য গঠনের,
শব্দ চয়নের।
যথা: “আমি ভাত খাই।
আমি খাই ভাত।
খাই আমি ভাত।
খাই ভাত আমি।
ভাত খাই আমি।
ভাত আমি খাই”।
সকলই সঠিক বাক্য ভাব প্রকাশে।

বাংলা এমন একটি ভাষা,
যে ভাষায় লিঙ্গ বৈষ্যম্য বিলীন।
নারী ও পুরুষ কন্ঠে কন্ঠ মিলিয়ে
একই বাক্যে বলতে পারে;
আমি তোমায় ভালোবাসি।
আমি তোমায় ভালোবাসি।

বাংলা এমন একটি ভাষা,
যে ভাষায় মানুষ প্রকাশ করে
সম্মান, ভালোবাসা, স্নেহ;
আপনি, তুমি, তুই
আবেগ ও সম্পর্কের অনুপাতে।

বাংলা পৃথিবীর সহজতম ভাষা,
এ ভাষা বাঙালির ঐতিহ্য,
আবেগ প্রকাশের পরিভাষা।
