Cyclone Aila

 

Cyclone Aila    Lessons 2-3

D. Look, listen and read (দেখ, শোন আর পড়).

Cyclone Aila (ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলা)

Babul and his family live on the island of Dublar Char (বাবুল ও তার পরিবার দুবলার চর দ্বীপে বসবাস করে). Life is good for the family now, but that wasn't true after Cyclone Aila (বর্তমানে পরিবারের অবস্থা ভাল, কিন্তু ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলার পরে এ অবস্থা ছিল না).

Babul doesn't remember Cyclone Aila, but his parents often talk about that terrible night in 2009 (বাবুল ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলার কথা মনে করতে পারে না, তবে তার বাবা-মা প্রায়শই ২০০৯ সালের সেই ভয়ানক রাতের কথা বলেন).

Babul's father had a grocery shop and his mother worked in a fish farm (বাবুলের বাবার মুদির দোকান ছিল এবং তার মা একটি মাছের খামারে কাজ করতেন). They had a small house that they shared with Babul's grandparents (তাদের একটি ছোট বাড়ি ছিল যা তারা বাবুলের দাদা-দাদির সাথে ভাগভাগি করে থাকত). Babul was just a baby, but his sister Nipa was six years old (বাবুল তখন শুধুই বাচ্চা, কিন্তু তার বোন নিপার বয়স তখন ছয় বছর ছিল).

Babul's father told him what happened that day (বাবুলের বাবা তাঁকে বলেন, সেদিন কী হয়েছিল). There was light rain in the morning on 25 May (২৫ মে সকালে হালকা বৃষ্টি হয়েছিল). In the afternoon, the wind started to blow and people began to run for their homes (বিকেলে, বাতাস বইতে শুরু করে এবং লোকেরা তাদের বাড়ির দিকে দৌড়াতে শুরু করে). Babul's father closed his shop and his mother came home (বাবুলের বাবা তার দোকান বন্ধ করে দেয় এবং তার মা বাড়ি ফিরে আসেন). His grandparents checked the family's emergency kit (তার দাদা-দাদি পরিবারের জরুরী প্রয়োজনের থলেটি পরীক্ষা করেছিলেন). Their torch was working and they had extra batteries (তাদের টর্চ কাজ করছিল এবং তাদের কাছে অতিরিক্ত ব্যাটারি ছিল). They put the torch, batteries and first aid kit in plastic box (তারা প্লাস্টিকের বাক্সে টর্চ, ব্যাটারি এবং প্রাথমিক চিকিৎসার সরঞ্জাম রাখে).

By the evening, the river was rising (সন্ধ্যার দিকে, নদীর পাণি বেড়ে যাচ্ছিল।). The winds of Cyclone Aila shook the walls of the house as if there was an earthquake (ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলার বাতাস বাড়ির দেয়ালকে এমনভাবে নাড়িয়ে দিয়েছিল যেনন ভূমিকম্প হলে হয়). Everyone was afraid (সবাই ভয় পেয়েছিল). Nipa began to cry (নিপা কাঁদতে শুরু করল). Suddenly, there was an awful noise and the family's roof blew away (হঠাৎ, একটি ভয়ানক শব্দ হয়েছিল এবং পরিবারের ছাদটি উড়ে গিয়েছিল)! The sky was dark, but the family could see trees flying over their heads (আকাশ অন্ধকার ছিল, কিন্তু পরিবারটি তাদের মাথার উপর দিয়ে উড়ন্ত গাছগুলি দেখতে পেয়েছিল). Grandmother still says she saw fish flying through the sky (দাদিমা এখনও বলেন যে তিনি আকাশ দিয়ে মাছ উড়তে দেখেছেন).

Cyclone Aila    Lessons 4-5

The next day was awful (পরের দিনটা ছিল ভয়ানক). Babul's family couldn't stop crying (কান্না থামাতে পারেনি বাবুলের পরিবার). Nipa and grandfather were missing (নিপা এবং দাদা নিখোঁজ ছিল). Babul's father went out to look for them (বাবুলের বাবা তাদের খুঁজতে বের হন). He found Nipa in a field (তিনি একটি মাঠে নিপাকে খুঁজে পেয়েছিলেন). She was holding onto a tree and she was covered in mud (তিনি একটি গাছ ধরে রেখেছিলেন এবং তিনি কাদায় ঢাকা ছিলেন). She could not remember anything (সে কিছুই মনে করতে পারছিল না). He took Nipa at home and began looking for his father (তিনি নিপাকে বাড়িতে নিয়ে যান এবং তার বাবার সন্ধান শুরু করেন). He looked

in the fields, the buildings and in the trees (সে মাঠে, ভবনে এবং গাছে দেখল). Many people in Bangladesh were missing after Cyclone Aila, and Babul's grandfather was one of them (ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলার পর বাংলাদেশে অনেক মানুষ নিখোঁজ ছিল, এবং বাবুলের দাদা তাদের মধ্যে একজন ছিলেন).The family never found him (পরিবার তাকে কখনো খুঁজে পায়নি).

After Cyclone Aila, people worked together (ঘূর্ণিঝড় আইলার পর মানুষ একসঙ্গে কাজ করল). Nipa's school became the shelter for the survivors (নিপার স্কুল বেঁচে যাওয়া দের আশ্রয়স্থল হয়ে উঠল). Babul and his family went to live in the school (বাবুল ও তার পরিবার স্কুলে থাকতে গিয়েছিলেন). The government of Bangladesh and workers from NGOs come to help, but things were very hard (বাংলাদেশ সরকার এবং এনজিওগুলির কর্মীরা সাহায্য করতে আসে, কিন্তু জিনিসগুলি খুব কঠিন ছিল). There wasn't enough safe drinking water or food, so many people became ill (পর্যাপ্ত পরিমাণে নিরাপদ পানীয় জল বা খাবার ছিল না, তাই অনেক লোক অসুস্থ হয়ে পড়েছিল). In time, people repaired their homes and rebuilt their villages and bridges (সময়ের সাথে সাথে, লোকেরা তাদের বাড়িগুলি মেরামত করেছিল এবং তাদের গ্রাম ও সেতুগুলি পুনর্নির্মাণ করেছিল). They planted new trees and new crops in their fields (তারা তাদের জমিতে নতুন গাছ এবং নতুন ফসল রোপণ করেছিল). Babul feels happy when he looks at the trees and his sister Nipa, but he feels sad about his grandfather (বাবুল যখন গাছ এবং তার বোন নিপার দিকে তাকায় তখন সে খুশি হয়, কিন্তু সে তার দাদুর জন্য দুঃখ বোধ করে). His grandmother says, “Don't be sad, Babul (তার ঠাকুমা বলে, "দুঃখ করো না, বাবুল). Grandfather wanted us to live for the future (দাদু চেয়েছিলেন আমরা যেন ভবিষ্যতের জন্য বেঁচে থাকি).”
