Gitanjali

Gitanjali - Rabindranath Tagore A collection of beautiful poems you might not want to miss reading! Although now that I have finished reading it, I do not recollect each of the poems but there are a few that I shall always remember.I loved these for instance,Day after day, O lord of my life, shall I stand before thee face toface. With folded hands, O lord of all worlds, shall I stand before theeface to face.Under thy great sky in solitude and silence, with humble heartshall I stand before thee face to face.In this laborious world of thine, tumultuous with toil and withstruggle, among hurrying crowds shall I stand before thee face toface.And when my work shall be done in this world, O King of kings,alone and speechless shall I stand before thee face to face.and this oneWhere the mind is without fear and the head held high;Where knowledge is free;Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;Where words come out from the depth of truth;Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening thought and action;Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.Review to follow!
