Poems of Rabindranath Tagore in English on Nature
Rabindranath Tagore - "On The Nature of Love"
The night is black and the forest has no end;
a million people thread it in a million ways.
We have trysts to keep in the darkness, but where
or with whom - of that we are unaware.
But we have this faith - that a lifetime's bliss
will appear any minute, with a smile upon its lips.
Scents, touches, sounds, snatches of songs
brush us, pass us, give us delightful shocks.
Then peradventure there's a flash of lightning:
whomever I see that instant I fall in love with.
I call that person and cry: `This life is blest!
for your sake such miles have I traversed!'
All those others who came close and moved off
in the darkness - I don't know if they exist or not.

A Short Story of Rabindranath Tagore -
There are several stories by Tagore. A three-volume series of eighty-four of his stories is called Galpaguchchha (Bunch of Stories). About half of these tales were written by Tagore between 1891 to 1895. This collection of Bangla literary works is still highly well-read. Multiple films and stage productions have adapted these stories.
For his passages, Tagore took ideas and inspiration from his surroundings—the Indian small town life. He spent a lot of time with the underprivileged people while travelling to take care of his family's huge landholdings. He occasionally applied different themes to examine the scope of his intellectual ability.
