Fallen King

Fallen King by Emad Islam
Fallen King, a photo by Emad Islam on Flickr.
I feel displaced in my kingdom of disgrace
And I feel shamefaced for the sin I know I can't replace
And I can't help but feeling a little low down
Or should it be the other way around
It seems my smile appears upside-down
I guess then it's called a frown
I'm falling down, broken my crown
I feel like a king who's lost everything
I'm falling down, down to the ground
Will you catch me, because I'm falling
I'm falling down
I'm all alone, trying to survive on my own
And I need a light, to guide me when I walk through this life
Perhaps even give me eternal life
And he'll have a beautiful kingdom
And I'll live with him and his son

Drag me to the moon, to catch a star and seize its brilliance as I'm swept up in amorphous dust.

There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact it's all dark.

Though the night was made for loving
And the day returns too soon
Yet we'll go no more a-roving
By the light of the moon

সাদা ময়ুর (White Peafowl)

Besides the India Blue, whites are the most well known peafowl type to non-enthusiasts. Contrary to popular belief, whites are not albinos, because their eyes are blue, not pink.

The white is a color mutation, and although it can carry other genes, such as the blackshoulder and white-eyed, they are not visible because of its completely white color.

Males are, as their name implies, completely white. Faint eyespots can be distinguished in the train by a thin layer of off white that surrounds the ocelli. The actual seeing eyes of the birds are blue.

It is speculated there may be a few white peafowl bred naturally in India. White was one of the first variations to be discovered and made popular, and has been around for many years.

Free is all you gotta be
dream dreams no one else can see
sometimes ya wanna run away
but ya never know what might be comin' round your way
ya ya ya

On a day like today
the whole world could change
the sun's gonna shine
shine thru the rain
on a day like today
ya never wanna see the sun go down
ya never wanna see the sun go down

Somewhere - there's a place for you
I know that you believe it too
sometimes if you wanna get away
all ya gotta know is what we got is here to stay
all the way

On a day like today - the whole world could change
the sun's gonna shine - shine thru the rain
on a day like today - no one complains
free to be pure - free to be sane
on a day like today
ya never wanna see the sun go down
ya never wanna see the sun go down

Free is all we gotta be
dream dreams no one else can see
but ya never know what might be comin' for you and me
ya it's gonna be

on a day like today...

চিত্রা হরিণ (Chital)

The chital or cheetal (Axis axis), also known as chital deer, spotted deer or axis deer is a deer which commonly inhabits wooded regions of Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, and in small numbers in Pakistan. The Chital goes by various names in India, among which include: Chital horin in Bengali, Thith Muwa in Sinhalese, Jinke in Kannada, Pulli Maan in Tamil and Malayalam, Duppi in Telugu, Phutuki Horin in Assamese, Haran/Harin in Marathi, and Hiran in Hindi/Urdu (the latter two derived from Harini, the Sanskrit cognate for 'deer'). It is the most common deer species in Indian forests. The name Chital comes from the Bengali word Chitral (চিত্রল)/Chitra (চিত্রা), which means "spotted".

চিত্রা হরিণ বা চিত্রল হরিণ (Axis axis) এক ধরণের হরিণ। বাংলাদেশ, নেপাল, শ্রীলংকা এবং ভারতের প্রায় সব বনাঞ্চলেই এদের পাওয়া যায়।
