Me Migrant

by Cyril Wong, Fariha Imran, Mukul Hossine
Me Migrant
Me Migrant

Poetic journey of a migrant's resilience and hope.

"Me Migrant" sings of the struggles and dreams of those far from home, penned earnestly by someone who's lived it. It's a testament to human spirit, transcreated to convey the raw emotion and aspirations that pulsate through every line. If you're seeking a read that's as poignant as it is inspiring, this tapestry of verses might just resonate deeply with you.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Me Migrant features the poems of Md Mukul Hossine – poems originally written in Bengali by Mukul, transcreated by Singapore poet Cyril Wong based on English translations by Fariha Imran and Farouk Ahammed. It represents the voice of hope and inclusiveness, of longing and dreaming, of service and heart. This collection was born of the friendship between volunteers of community clinic HealthServe and foreign construction workers. Dr Tan Lai Yong, a volunteer medical doctor at HealthServe and his team of medical students from National University of Singapore (NUS) were inspired by their experiences and Mukul's poems to respond with some writings of their own. The poetry within these pages makes us see farther, think deeper, and listen. In listening, let us cross these borders.
