About this bookएहि पोथीक विषयमे
The translator’s introduction describes this as the first selection from Kavitadhan to appear in English. He places Bhimnath Jha among the leading poets of the second wave of renaissance in contemporary Maithili writing, and credits him, with Dhumketu, Kirtinarayan Mishra, Uday Chandra Jha ‘Vinod’ and Harekrishna Jha, with bringing a new idiom into Maithili poetry: close to the vocabulary, phrasing and rhythms of everyday speech, and edged with irony about the social order.अनुवादकक भूमिका एकरा ‘कविताधन’सँ चुनल कविताक पहिल अंग्रेजी चयन कहैत अछि। ओ भीमनाथ झाकेँ समकालीन मैथिली लेखनक द्वितीय पुनर्जागरण-लहरिक प्रमुख कविमे गनैत छथि; धूमकेतु, कीर्तिनारायण मिश्र, उदयचन्द्र झा ‘विनोद’ आ हरेकृष्ण झाक संग हुनका मैथिली कवितामे एक नव मुहावरा आनबाक श्रेय दैत छथि: आजुक मैथिलीक बोलचालक शब्द, पदबन्ध आ लयसँ लग, आ सामाजिक व्यवस्था पर व्यंग्यक धारसँ युक्त।
The publisher’s note describes the translator, Prof. Murari Madhusudan Thakur, as a renowned professor of English and a translator honoured with the Sahitya Akademi’s Translation Prize. The appendices give the original Maithili titles, a glossary of Maithili words and notes on the text.प्रकाशकक वक्तव्य अनुवादक प्रो. मुरारि मधुसूदन ठाकुरकेँ अंग्रेजीक प्रसिद्ध प्राध्यापक आ साहित्य अकादेमीक अनुवाद पुरस्कारसँ सम्मानित अनुवादकक रूपमे परिचित करबैत अछि। परिशिष्टमे मूल मैथिली शीर्षक, शब्दावली आ पाठ-टिप्पणी अछि।

From the bookपोथीसँ
“I am full of a sense of singular privilege as I introduce to readers of Indian poetry in English the work of Bhimnath Jha as one of the leading lights of the second wave of renaissance in contemporary Maithili writing, especially during the last several decades of the twentieth century.”
My own village’s Marichaa farms,
Or going towards the Jhauaakothi orchard,
The banks of the Naveepokhari
Or Towards the Bankubaa Baabaa’s ShrineWhether it’s cold and damp
A windless spell or scorching heat,
Whether clouds coming down
Or a spring-like breeze rise.Stretched on the buffalo-back
Clinging fast to its backbone skin
The buffalo boy exploring, in a tone and timbre all his own
The possibilities of music
