Background

In 2011, Cricket World Cup was held in three different countries including Bangladesh. The inaugural ceremony was held on February 17 at Bangabandhu National Stadium, Dhaka. The gala program started with a song that highlighted history, heritage, culture and traditions of Bangladesh to the world. Zulfiqer Russell, who pens the lyrics, tried to highlight the Liberation War, Language Movement, Cricket Team, Sunderbans, Cox's Bazar, and various aspects of the world. Composed by Ibrar Tipu, the song features music from classical to folk and danata, from Sanai to the traditional domestic tunes. [7]

gollark: I have one of those, but only the front is lava, the rest is just concrete.
gollark: That sphere stores the potatOS master key.
gollark: It's a few months old and they didn't lose world data anyway, so yes.
gollark: I've also got a bedrock sphere with no entrances or exits on Switchcraft, buried underground under a random island.
gollark: Also an energy shield.
