তাঁর জাদুকরি সম্মোহনী শক্তিই বাঙালি জাতিকে উদ্বুদ্ধ করেছিল গুলির সামনে বুক পেতে দিতে। তিনি বরাভয় দিয়েছিলেন বলেই ভয় পায়নি জাতি। ইতিহাসের সেই বরপুত্র বঙ্গবন্ধু শেখ মুজিবুর রহমান, আমাদের জাতির জনক। আজো তিনি আমাদের প্রেরণার উৎস। আমাদের সত্ত্বায় মিশে আছেন তিনি। আজ ১৭ মার্চ এই মহান বাঙালির জন্মদিন। বাঙালির আত্মপরিচয়ের প্রতিক তিনি।

আমার ভাই এর রক্তে রাঙানো একুশে ফেব্রুয়ারী, আমি কি ভুলিতে পারি.

আন্তর্জাতিক মাতৃভাষা দিবস.
