ByPublisher Description
"Light, oh where is the light! Kindle it with the burning fire of desire! It thunders and the wind rushes screaming through the void. The night is black as a black stone. Let not the hours pass by in the dark. Kindle the lamp of love with thy life." - R. Tagore
Originally published in Bengali in 1910, the English translation by Tagore himself was released in 1912. This collection of 103 poems is widely regarded as one of Tagore's most significant works, and it played a crucial role in him being awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. In this work, the poet, through his deep introspection and lyrical expression, invites the reader to explore the themes of love, devotion, and the search for a divine truth.
