Translation of Bangla poetry. Mohi Tree Poet Tree.

We are currently working on a popular Bangla song that highlights wedding traditions in Bangla culture. Specifically, the piece focuses on the bride’s preparation for her special day. In Bangladeshi culture, it is common for both the bride and groom to use turmeric paste (holud) to achieve equally glowing skin for their wedding ceremonies. The traditional Bangladeshi bride has a Mehedi Sondhya, during which a turmeric paste is applied to the skin to give it a yellow tint.

যশোরে সাগরদাঁড়ি কবতক্ষ-তীরে
জন্মভূমি, জন্মদাতা দত্ত মহামতি

The modern twist on the traditional Bangla folk song that Baul Shah Abdul Karim created is known as the "Baul genre." Shah Abdul Karim is a Bangladeshi folk singer recognized as Baul Samrat (Emperor). These songs are known for their unique blend of mysticism, philosophy, and music and are still prevalent in Bangladesh and beyond. MoHiKonTok Acknowledging the Baul songs as a particular form of music that belongs to the Baul genre is imperative.

বাজারে তখন ট্রেন্ড চলছিলো শ্যামা সঙ্গীতের। শ্যামা সঙ্গীত গেয়ে সবাই রীতিমতো বিখ্যাত হয়ে যাচ্ছে। এই স্রোতে গা ভাসাতে গিয়ে অনেক মুসলিম শিল্পী হিন্দু নাম ধারণ করেন। মুনশী মোহাম্মদ কাসেম হয়ে যান ‘কে. মল্লিক’, তালাত মাহমুদ হয়ে যান ‘তপন কুমার’। মুসলিম নামে হিন্দু সঙ্গীত গাইলে গান চলবে না। নজরুল নিজেও শ্যামা সঙ্গীত লেখেন, সুর দেন। গানের বাজারের যখন এই অবস্থা তখন আব্বাস উদ্দীনের আবদার “ বাংলায় ইসলামি গান তো তেমন নেই। বাংলায় ইসলামি গান গেলে হয় না?” জবাবে নজরুল কী উত্তর দেবেন?

নজরুল সাহিত্য নিয়ে চর্চার অভাব আছে বাংলা সাহিত্যে এখনো। কথা সত্য। কিন্তু এই কারণে আমি নজরুল কে নিয়ে পডকাস্ট করা বেছে নিয়ে তা ঠিক নয়। বরং নজরুলের রচনা আমার বেক্তিগত জীবনে এন্ড পেশায় তুলনামূলক ভাবে বেশি প্রাসঙ্গিক।

How do we learn prejudice? Social scientists believe children begin to acquire prejudices and stereotypes as toddlers. Studies have found that school teachers clearly telegraph prejudices, so much so that some researchers believe children of color and white children in the same classroom effectively receive different educations. In the case of police, bias may affect split-second, life-or-death decisions. Shootings of black men incorrectly thought to be holding guns— George Floyed's murder and many more racial hate crimes displays stereotypes of immigrant in New York, police misconduct —brought this issue into the public debate. We refuse explicit bigotry. Cruelty, bullying, and slurs are just not OK in school.

LoFi is a musical genre. LoFi means Low Fidelity. Low fidelity stands for the quality of the LoFi musical genres. One of the outstanding characteristics of LoFi's sound is that it tells listeners when the sound note will be reproduced or copied. It is about the recording quality of a particular album. In the late ’80s and ’90s, LoFi term was used to indicate the recording quality of a particular album. Since listeners can easily predict the repetitive pattern, the producers labeled it as bad! Plus, the recording includes natural room noise in the background. Later it became the genre LoFi itself.
The LoFi sounds help to relax. It helps learners focusing on their daily tasks. The repetitive pattern of LoFi genre is the source of relax, focus and energize. I have experienced that 'LoFi' wraps (e.g. flocabulary.com) are used in classroom for motivating learners. So, the LoFi’s bad quality means a good type of bad to me.
Therefore, LoFi music becomes a music genre. LoFi is low quality on purpose. It protects listeners thinking from the unpredictable harsh outside world with its predictability nature and repetitive pattern. Subscribe mOhiKonTok channel on YouTube.
