all the questions answer of the poem cradle song by s.naidu
Answers
Explanation:
From groves of spice,
O’er fields of rice,
Athwart the lotus-stream,
I bring for you,
Aglint with dew
A little lovely dream.
Sweet, shut your eyes,
The wild fire-flies
Dance through the fairy neem;
From the poppy-bole
For you I stole
A little lovely dream.
Dear eyes, good-night,
In golden light
The stars around you gleam;
On you I press
With soft caress
A little lovely dream.
Background:
Sarojini Naidu, known as “The nightingale of India”, was a great Indian poet, orator, politician and administrator. Her poem “Cradle song” is a very gentle and tender song used to lull a child to sleep. This is being sung by a mother to her child who describes various picturesque places from where she says she brings her child a little lovely dream. The poem is a mother’s use of imagination and beautiful words which create a calming effect on the child and induce sleep. The mother gently caresses the child while singing and says she hopes the child sleeps well and has pleasant dreams. From the poem we can infer that it is based in an Indian village as she describes the spice groves, rice fields and a stream.
