Kanika -- its wonderful . Its awesome in its meaning and interpretation . There are several poems in this booklet . Each and every poem has an internal meaning -- an internal interpretation . Rabindranath Tagore is a great poet and at the same time he is a great philosopher . I am giving some examples of his this philosophical work ..
1> Some farmers are working in the filed in the sun . They are telling each other that goddess earth gives them every thing -- water , soil , seeds etc , but why she does not give them rice and other things easily so that they don't have to till the land in the sun ? Then goddess earth says that if I give you rice easily , then there is little pride for me , but the farmers loss their pride totally .
2> After rainy season , the water less cloud is in the corner of the sky . But the pond is totally water full . Then the pond says to the could , " oh cloud you are waterless , see me , I am full of water ." . Then the cloud says " Don't worry , you are water full -- thats my pride " .
3> A beautiful lady says to the full moon " oh my full moon what am I listening from Pandit ( Erudite People ) ? you will not be there in the world ? One day you will be destroyed ? Then what will we do ? " Then the full moon says to the beautiful lady " Don't be saddened , go to the Pandit ( Erudite people ) and ask aout your life span in this world " .
4> Kalsi ( A pot which is used to store drinking water ) says to the well " Oh! well , you are so small compared to sea , if you were a sea then I will drink a lot of water from you " . But the well says " Don't be saddened , I am smaller compared to sea , thats why I am so silent , but you don't have to be worried for that , you can take as much of water from me , I will not be finished , I will be remain same . "
etc . Hope I will be able to translate whole KANIKA booklet one day .
