Question

Summary for poem ''Where the Mind is Without Fear''. Poem below
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.
- Rabindranath Tagore

The poem is written in the form of a prayer to the God, the Almighty for a true freedom for his country. And thus Tagore reveals his own concept of freedom throughout the poem, Where the Mind is Without Fear.
