'সন্ধ্যা যদি নামে পথে, চন্ত্র যদি পূর্বাচল কোণে না হয় উদয়, মতারকার পুঞ্জ যদি নিভে যায় প্রলয় জলদে, না করিব ভয়। হিংস্র ঊর্মি ফণা তুলি, বিভীষিকা মূর্তি ধরি যদি গ্রাসিবারে আসে, সে মৃত্যু লঙ্ঘিয়া যাব, সিন্ধু পাড়ে নবজীবনের নবীন আশ্বাসে। সারমর্ম: "মানবজীবন স্বপ্নময়, সংসারময়। সব ধরনের বাধা-বিপত্তি অতিক্রম করে নতুন জীবনের আলোর পথে তাই এগিয়ে যেতে হবে নির্ভয়ে। অন্ধকার, হিংস্রতা, মৃত্যু কোনকিছুই নবীনের যাত্রাপথকে স্তব্ধ করে দিতে পারে না, এমনই প্রত্যয়দীপ্ত স্বপ্নময় আশ্বাস নবজীবনের।"
