I'm ready to translate your Bengali poetry into English. Please share the Bengali text you'd like me to translate, and I'll create a literary translation that captures the essence, voice, and emotional truth of the original while maintaining natural, idiomatic English that reads as literature in its own right.

Yet One Must Lose

1 min read By Sushanta Paul 


Coming close to you—
I wanted to forget
all my inadequacies...
I couldn't—couldn't blend myself with you.

Your behavior didn't hurt me—
only across this heart spread
emptiness's wounded gaze,
pain's unbearable crowd,
in your gentle voice, your shallow breath
there is no love for me.

I see, I sense it.
I understand everything...
I keep you here in these ribs,
yet still I must lose.
