In this 'Song offerings', Tagore uses modernized
images from classical Indian love poetry to symbolize
his yearning to merge with the Supreme. So the mudstained
traveller, the parched summer earth, the bride
awaiting the return of her lord, the first monsoon
shower, the flowers, the rivers and the conch are
images which gain a mystical depth in these poems.
Included in this edition is W.B. Yeats' Introduction to
Tagore's English translation of the work.
