Hi Malabika, I have not seen this poem yet, in the collection named “Selected PoemsOf R. Tagore “, edited by Sukanta Chaudhuri. Nor in the complete collected English writing by Tagore, published by Kendriya Sahitys Akademi, India. Not on the many collections in Malayalam I have, either. First time I am reading this most beautiful poem. Thank you.
This is a beautiful poem, although I haven't seen any translation, either! My aunt requested me to do a translation of this poem, because her granddaughter can not read Bengali, and she got a Cockatoo as a pet. I felt energized, and finished it in a short time. Thanks again and again for reading and giving me a lot of related information.
Wow! Wonderful translation of the poem by The Great Master.
Thanks, Dear Poet, so delighted to share with you! It's an honour to be able to translate Tagore's poems! Probably you are familiar with his poems in Bengali!
Simple, excellent translation
