Kavita (poetry magazine)

                    Zindagi ki subhah

                                         Hay subhah kehati he tumse ki uth or nikal padh apni zindagi dhondane.  Zindagi dhondane keliye itni mahenat Kar ki kaynat bhi acchi zindali dene keliye majbhur Ho Jaye. Zindagi ne time diya hai kuch karne keliye time ne zindagi Nani di.  Ye subhah nai roshni le aai hai such karne keliye kuch Kar dikhane keliye. Zindagi ne hame bohot raste diye hai par vo hamare upar he ki ham konsa taste chunte he. Zindagi ne subhah ke sath Kali rat bhi ati hai. Or vo Kali rat bohot sare dukhat parasstithi ye ati yai.  Yai parasstithi bohot kathin hoti hai jo iss Kali rat se roshni churakar le aya vo Raja kahalata ye. Jo iss Kali parasstith me rota hai vo kamjor kehelata yai. papa kehete hai ki khud ki zindagi ki book ham khud likhate hai . Or ham sabh ko hamari book likhani hai.  Iss zindagi mai hame Aisa kuch karke dikhana chahile ki puri duniya hamara naam Jane . Maine aisa suna hai ki zindagi aka bar milti hai. Nahi zindagi hajar bar milti hogi par iss zindagi mai ham kyaisi roshni late hai vo hamare hat mai hai. Paida hone se marne tak bas yehi khvaish hai ki zindagi ki subhah acchi Ho.

History

The first literary magazine published by poet Buddhadeva Bose was Pragati.^[1] He was then living in Dhaka. It was short-lived and the last issue was published in 1929^{[citation needed]}. Four years after migrating from Dhaka to Calcutta in 1931, Buddhadeva decided to publish a literary magazine exclusively for poetry. He named it Kavita. He was then living in 'Golam Mohammad Mansion' in Calcutta city. The first issue of the Kavita was published from there in the month of October 1935. For the first two years, Kavita was co-edited by Buddhadeva Bose and Premendra Mitra while poet Samar Sen worked as the assistant editor. It is notable that Kavita was a poetry magazine-styled after the Poetry published by Harriet Monroe from Chicago. While discussing Bengali poetry, Edward Thomson referred to the first issue of Kavita in The Times Literary Supplement of 1 February 1936.^[1]

Buddhadeva Bose lived at 202 Rasbihari Avenue, Calcutta for a long time since 1937. This house was named Kavita Bhavan since it was home to Kavita for a long time. Kavita continued for twenty-five years. Its last issue was published in March 1961.^[2]
