Notes
- ^ For details on the notation, see Roman Bengali transliteration.
- ^ According to the Samsad Bengali-English Dictionary, baláká (বলাকা) is a female of "a kind of small goose capable of flying high". It could also mean "a flight of geese". However, the word has been loosely translated as "stork" or "swan". Perhaps of interest, the current logo of Biman Bangladesh Airlines is a stylized white baláká in flight within a red circle.
