The Nobel Prize
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

- poem Gitanjali 35 by poet and literature laureate Rabindranath Tagore.

Although Tagore wrote successfully in all literary genres, he was first of all a poet. Tagore produced writings that are deeply rooted in both Indian and Western learning traditions. His poetry is felt to convey the peace of the soul in harmony with nature.

The collection of prose 'Gitanjali' (1910) is one of his most famous literary works. Have you read 'Gitanjali'?
