Gulbahar Lyrics English Translation by Ishaan Mozumder | Shuvendu Das Shuvo
Mozumder details Gulbahar’s clever schemes and sudden disappearance through phrases like ‘posture filled with cleverness’ and ‘vanished one day, leaving wounds.’ Letters exchanged like formal petitions trace a love turned transactional.
