Book Description:
Gitanjali (meaning "Song Offerings") is a collection of deeply spiritual poems by Rabindranath Tagore that explores themes of divine love, inner longing, and the sacred in the everyday. Originally written in Bengali and translated into English by Tagore himself, the 1912 English edition earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature — making him the first non-European laureate.
With lyrical grace and a voice that blends personal devotion with universal insight, the poems in Gitanjali reflect a soul in communion with God, nature, and the human spirit. Drawing from Indian philosophical traditions and influenced by Tagore's own spiritual journey, the collection speaks to the heart with simplicity, depth, and quiet power.
A timeless work of mystical poetry, Gitanjali continues to resonate across cultures as a celebration of faith, humility, and the search for transcendence.
