Gitanjali

Rabindranath Tagore’s poems, songs, and short stories are priceless treasure of humanity. They are now in the public domain. The reader will be able to read free online and download free from various websites. However, with the thought that the reader would like to treasure a printed copy we have designed this lovely book to the delight of a poem-lover. This humble presentation is worthy of a collector’s showcase. The text of ‘Gitanjali’ has been proofread and copyedited, with reference to the original publication Gitanjali (song-offerings) and Fruit-Gathering (Leipzig: Bernhard Tauchnitz, 1922) that I have in my collection. Tagore used local terms such as Babla, maya, neem, and vina in his translation. We have added an appendix giving more information on these terms for the international readers.
