Salutations To 'Kalaguru

Salutations to you,

Your portrait of Sankaradeva
And title bestowed for 'Tandava',
'Rabha Sangeet' your creations
And 'Siraj' your direction,
Your acting in 'Era Bator Sur'
And 'Ban Theatre' in Tezpur...
An urge to demolish evil from nation,
Your lyrics reflected revolutionary notion,
For the need to uplift Assamese society,
You penned the book 'Axomiya Kristi'...
