Simply put, it has a deep poetic effect and is very beautifully written, a truly poetic path, must I say, to walk upon. Congrats on being chosen as The Classic Poem Of The Day. Also sincerest wishes to the family of the late great poet.

The inpirational tone in this poem is reflective of sheer genius and mental strengh.

new melodies break forth from the heart; and where the old tracks are lost, new country is revealed with its wonders.

Great Tagore is confident of his master's mercy which helps open new avenues when one is closed. Highly optimistic

I thought my journey was over. No further road was left to follow. Exhausted I was. No strength, no provisions were left. I thought my time to slip into silence had finally come. But I know my God sees no end of me. When the old music dies new melodies spring forth my heart. And when the travelled path is lost stunning vistas of a new country are revealed.

when old words die out of tounge, new melodies comes forth from heart. tounge -heart hierarchy. heart is not giving up.the godown of love. it will make you move ahead. Perhaps it is not heart, it is the head, the vital chemicals and a few vital signals and the whispering among neurons in us that make us moving.Whatever it is superb song by Gurudev.
