Cultural evolution is a continuous process,
Already I have introduced and discussed
About this special and big open theater,
In my previous poem titled,
‘Repertory Of The Danda Nata, ‘
And its beauty in brief in poem titled,
‘Opera In The Danda Nata -Hinjili Sana Party,
About night view and ritual is expressed in poem,
Titled, ‘Rituals Of Night Of The Danda Nata, ‘
Every great day celebration values for people,
Eagerness is witnessed from huge gathering,
Due to charm of the Danda Nata
Not only night watches this but also day,
Sun rises soon at right time not to miss
Sun watches the Nata and gives grace of light.
This opera of the Danda Nata started
On 12th April 2019 is still in movement
On 13th April 2019 along with inviting the crowd,
The journey of the opera from Friday to Saturday
It is motivating many people of the city,
Book is very interesting and actors are nice
All artists are from different parts of the state
A dance group is too associated with the party,
The party named, ‘Shree Sunyeshwara Gananatya, ‘
Of Morabai of Ganjam district is in progress,
Morabai is a village and Gram Panchayat,
In Tahsil of Puroshottampur near Pandia,
The drama titled, ‘Bhala Pai Tote Bhul Kali, ‘
Which means, ‘Doing Love to You I Did A Mistake, ‘
It is in peak of the success due to crowd,
This is directed by Mr. Jayram Muni,
Due to hurry the writer’s name I have not noted,
But great is the drama writer who has written this,
And we pay our tribute to him with due affection,
The view is taken from the spot
As the audience with crowd has given support,
This is organized by
Biju Patnaik Vegetable Vendors’s Association,
Near M. K. C. G. Medical College Square
At Court-Peta in Brahmapur City,
Beside the City Highway in a VIP area street,
We hear the sound of cheerful mood and clapping,
This Odia drama book is too not less than
The play of Greek Tragedian Sophocles’s Antigone,
Sophocles (497 BC- 406 BC) is the play writer,
Whose genre is, ‘Tragedy, ‘ and he is world famous,
Above Odia drama is well accepted by audience.
Season of the Danda Nata has brought up
Spring of Celebration at peak of the success,
Party is very happy getting excellent response,
Audience is happy enjoying a lovable drama,
Tear and emotion, love and separation,
Every sequence is entertaining audience greatly,
Crowd is very supportive in favour of the opera party,
A new day with new sunrise has arrived already,
The last scene of the drama has brought emotion,
Wow! The drama is finished now at 8: 05 am
As per Indian time on 13th April 2019,
After a day, the Meru Praba will be celebrated
And the season of the Danda Nata will go away,
Again we have to wait for the next year.
