Question

Q.4) Explain the line.

(a) If the shower will make the roses bloom, Oh, why lament its fall ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In the final line of the 1st stanza, the poet raises a rhetorical question, If the shower will make the roses bloom, O why lament its fall? meaning that if rain can make the rose bloom then why should we mourn it. In other words, sorrows lead to happiness and should not be lamented.
