Dhonni se ek chhele, tar galpo boli shono

dhonni se ek chhele, tar galpo boli shono
achena ek gaayer chheler katha
kamon kore se raja holo tari satti gatha

Ethiopia, sabai jane gorib desh bole
je deshete durbhbhikko ase bachhor bachhor ghure
sei desheri okhyato ek gram
Asella bole itihase uthechhe tar naam

sei grameri mather dhare, pata-chhawa kutire
basante ek janmo nilo shirno ek chhele
dash bhai-boner ekjon se krishaker sansare
bujhte paro kato aar tar pabar chhilo baba-mayer kachhe!

pathsale se bhorti holo gramer theke dure
dosh kolimeter giye tobe aste hoto phire
balok birer takon thekei dour je suru holo
boikhata booke dhore doure giye doure asto phire

emni kore chhotar suru poth chhere mathe ghate
sei chheler ee sujog elo bhir sahorer mathe
‘parbo na ami?’ bhabte bhabtei suru holo chhota
sedinee bujhiye dilo se lomba dourer ghora

tarpor sabee je galpo hoye galo
eker por ek chute tar sapno saphol holo

1993 er August mase Germanyr Stuttgert e
bissho-championshiper asor, tar bayos takhon kuri
10000 miterer doure sonar medel niye
Ethiopiar kalo chhele karlo hridoy churi

adore uchchhase manush tene nilo buke
prithibi joyer kanna-hasi bhoriye dilo sukhe

taro pore 1999 e notun itihas likhte holo abar
char-charte bissho-khetab jite nilo porer por por
porer bachhor 2000 Atlanta Olympic e
abar itihas gorlo se dubar sona jite

10000 er sonar chele bhablo ebar thak
dher hoyechhe track e, ebar rastai chhota jak
balbo ki aar tar pore se uthlo kise mete
kato record bhangle se je, sonar paye thuke

tobu ekta baro khed chhilo tar mone
marathoner bissho record asbe na nagale?

Sepember er 30 tarikh Berlin sahor jure
2007 marathoner asore, lok jutechhe kato
dour suru halo jei, hawai uthlo dak
‘Haile, Haile, Haile, ektu jore chhoto’

sabai jakhon eke eke pichhiye porlo dure
Haile takhon eki bhabe chute chollo lakhkhoti sthir rekhe
aboseshe prothom hoye record niye tobe
sonar chele ghore phirlo sonar hasi hese

bhabchho bujhi mithye ek rupkathar ei galpo?
satti na mano dekho khuje internete alpo
link ekta dilem rekhe ei charaner seshe
khuje dekho naamti jar Haile Gebrselassie

N.B. BBC ran a nice documentary on Haile last October. Look for it in their archives.
