My dear Rezoana,
At the beginning of
the letter, take my cordial love. Hope you are hale and hearty by the grace of
Almighty. I am also well by His grace. Recently, we have celebrated Pahela
Baishakh, the Bangla New Year’s Day at our school premises in a befitting [উপযুক্ত] manner. The day is a symbol of our Bangla culture It is celebrated with
traditional festivities all over the country. The day is a public holiday. On
this day early in the morning people of all ages and religions assemble at a
particular place wearing traditional dress and welcome the Bangla New Year
through songs and music. We, the students and the teachers also went to our campus
wearing traditional dress and sang song in chorus welcoming the new year. Then
artists sang folk song and bawool songs. People enjoy batasha (cake of
molasses) and Khoi (parched rice). I ate panta- Illish with great pleasure.
People wear new clothes in the morning and go to various places like public
squares. It is a special day to be remembered. That is all for today.
No more today. More when we shall meet. And write to me whenever you
have time.
With love and good wishes,
Farjana
