Suchitra Mitra

Just as a poet doesn’t have to write Many poems to win your heart. One good poem is wholesome Enough to stir your heart’s strings. Similarly, a singer doesn’t have to Sing scores of songs to touch you Deep down. Just one heart-felt song is good enough To etch your memories…for a lifetime. I heard her, when I was barely in my teens, I remembered her all through these years… Today, when she died, I felt as if a part of me Has gone forever, with her. That one song, she sang, she sang it so beautifully, None else could have crooned it so gracefully…. The song was Krishnokoli. The singer is Suchitra Mitra. Now she’s no more, yet I remember her, Thank her, feel grateful to her, for that One song she sang so wonderfully…. It has remained a part of me, and will Remain with me, like a timeless beauty. You can hear ‘Krishnokoli’ here, along with 3 other mellifluous songs of hers. http: //www.aparnaonline.com/suchitramitra.html
