O Mon Romzaner Oi Rozar Sheshe

"O Mon Romzaner Oi Rozar Sheshe" is a popular Bengali Eid-ul-Fitr song, written by Kazi Nazrul Islam, the national poet of Bangladesh. The song was written and composed in 1931 at the request of Nazrul's disciple, Abbasuddin Ahmed. The song is written on the end of the period of fasting and the Bengali celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr. The song remains one of the most popular Bengali song of all time and is a common tune heard in Bangladeshi households. This was regarded by his contemporaries as a significant achievement, as Bengali Muslims had been strongly averse to devotional music.

The song was released in February 1932. At the time of the recording the song, Abbasuddin Ahmed was 23 years old and had not yet made a proper debut as a folk singer. This song established him as a popular folk singer. In the following years, Ahmed gained popularity by singing the song at various events. After the partition of India in 1947, Ahmed moved to India.
