🇧🇩Flood-2024,Bangladesh.🇧🇩
— Zahidul Jamy.

Oh flood, my waters float Bangladesh,
No place to stand, nowhere to rest,
Dreams lost in the rising tide,
Life’s joy fades with the waterside.

Darkness swallows the streets so wide,
Dreams dissolve with the rising tide,
Hungry cries echo through the night,
Help is needed, shining bright.

Oh flood, my waters float Bangladesh,
No place to stand, nowhere to rest,
Dreams lost in the rising tide,
Life’s joy fades with the waterside.

In the ruins, the green has gone,
Nature’s wrath, a heavy dawn,
Clear the waters, bring back light,
To Bangladesh, restore what’s right.

Oh flood, my waters float Bangladesh,
No place to stand, nowhere to rest,
Dreams lost in the rising tide,
Life’s joy fades with the waterside.

Through the pain, hope must rise,
Life and hope must clear the skies,
Water’s edge must recede,
Restore the land, fulfill the need.

Oh flood, my waters float Bangladesh,
No place to stand, nowhere to rest,
Dreams lost in the rising tide,
Life’s joy fades with the waterside.
