The story

Gold Bengali lettering forms the bars of an open birdcage on a crimson ground, and a blue-black myna bursts free, scattering flecks of gold behind it.

Word and image become one: the lettering is the cage, and the song escapes it.

সোনা বরণ পাখিরে
আমার কাজল বরণ আঁখি

Sona boron pakhi re, amar kajol boron ankhi

“O golden-hued bird, my eyes dark as kohl”From the Bengali folk song “Amar Shonar Moyna Pakhi”, sung by Nina Hamid
