eso he boishakh - Hail New Year

Hail Boishakh, hail to thee

By the divine breeze dispel miseries

Empty the year-long debris.

Let go of old memories and forgotten ditties

Let tears disappear.

Wipe away fatigues, do away with maladies

Let by the fire-shower the world’s cleansed.

Dry up lethargies

Sound the bugle of change

Let the mist of delusion recede.

Boishakh – The first month of the year and of the summer season
