Sanchita

Abstract

Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam selected and compiled some of his best poems and lyrics in a volume and named it as 'Sanchita'- the selected poems and lyrics. Those resourceful poems and lyrics in 'Sanchita' uphold human dignity, religious harmony, truth, beauty, pain and love. His poems validated the philosophy of human values and social justice. The superb poetic excellence is manifested in every page of 'Sanchita'-the masterpiece of literature. Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam captured the theme of love and humanity in the poems that readily demonstrated his feelings for the mankind, his rebelliousness against injustice and his emotions as a lover for his beloved in concrete and sublime form. The Poet gave the impression of being so romantic in his feelings and emotions. He merged himself with the beauteous hills, forests, birds, mountains, rivers and seas around him and expressed his feelings of happiness and pain as if he is a part of the nature by being a true lover. The philosophy of universal equality of mankind reflects very much on the center theme of his poems. He urged to all mankind to amalgamate the differences and hindrances that exist in the religion and society and bring them at one confluence of equality. As he wrote, wisdom of equality lies in the heart, not in the scriptures of religions.
