  • Echoing Tagore's Love for the Monsoons
    ECHOING TAGORE’S LOVE FOR THE MONSOONS Sukanya Guha Alumni of Banaras Hindu University, India Contact: [email protected] Abstract In India, Bengal’s most celebrated literary figure, Rabindranath Tagore, was specifically sensitive regarding the various seasons occurring in India. The monsoon and its relation with Tagore’s songs is the main focus of this paper. The monsoon, when Mother Nature spreads her beauty by unravelling her bounty treasures, is richly expressed by Tagore. In the composition for the khanika (poem) ‘Asho nai tumi phalgune’ [you did not come in the spring season] Tagore says: “when I awaited eagerly for your visit in the spring, you didn’t come. Please, don’t make me wait any longer and do come during the full monsoon”. In another of his songs he visualises on a cloudy sunless day, a person’s longing to share his or her deepest treasure of feeling for that particular important person ‘Emon ghonoghor boroshaye’ [in this heavy downpour] (Tagore 2002: 333, song 248). Through these poetic compositions and many more, one may understand the depth in Tagore’s understanding of the human’s emotional details regarding this specific season. The monsoon may also be disastrous. According to Tagore’s a composition ‘Bame rakho bhoyonkori’ [keep aside the destructions] (Tagore 2002: 394, song 58) he describes as well as wishes that the monsoon keeps away the damage or distress from people’s lives. His tunes blend with his words and emotions, not to mention the ragas that are believed to be related with rain that is popular to the Indian subcontinent such as Rag Megh or Rag Mian ki Malhar.

Memories can be of particular events- political, social or cultural, witnessed by us individually or collectively. Memories can relate to prominent Individuals also, who hold some kind of influence on us individually or collectively, depending upon the actual experience of the nature of our interaction with such individuals. And, certainly our memories pertain to certain geographical locations too, stayed or visited by us in the past. The generation of the Indian people which witnessed the midnight celebrations of India’s independence from the British Empire on the intervening night of the 14/15th August 1947, for instance, have lived with the memories of this event, permanently etched at the back of their minds. The generation of Indian people which interacted directly with leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, for instance, each such interaction formed episodes in the overall memories of such people, which they could recollect and cherish for their lifetimes. Subsequent generations rely on ‘retold or relived’ experiences, yet nostalgically connect to those memories on each revisit. Similarly, one usually relishes nostalgically the place of his/her formative years, particularly more, if she / he shift out of that location.
