Answer 1

Answer:

This beautiful stanza has been selected from the poem “The Nightingale” composed by “Robert Bridges”.

Explanation:

The poet tells us that the nightingales sing sweetly because they must have learnt it from beautiful mountains. He further imagines that the river must be bright and must be flowing through fruitful valleys. He expresses his desire to roam about the starry -woods. But the nightingale says that his guess is not right. The mountains are barren and the river is dry. Their song is the expression of unfulfilled desires that keep them restless. It is expression of deep sorrow. Still they can not express their desires in spite of this talent. It is irony that man enjoys it. When in the morning the countless birds start chirping and welcome the dawn, they are lost in dreams.

Answer 2

The poem Nightingales is written by Robert Bridges tells us that though sweet and captivating, the sound of nightingales may not be a sound of joy and happiness

Explanation:

• The main idea of Robert Bridges ' poem "Nightingales" is that the poet is not in agreement with the Romantic view of the nightingales of her place of living. Their songs are not romantic, as they live in mountains and valleys with lovely fruits and flowers. Their song is lovely as it shows the pain which lies in their heart's depth. The nightingales have a mysterious nightly secret to tell men loudly.

• The poem is in two voices. The first verse is in the voice of the traditional Romantic who imagines a nightingale to be such a lovely world with flowers and fruits similar to a paradise.

• The second and third voices are in the nightingale voices which show, in reply, just how romantic and sorrowful their world is. It's not of full fertility, but of never fulfilled dreams and desires.  Even their song is unable to express the depth of their sorrow.
• The last two lines suggest that the more ordinary birds who greet the sunrise are the ones that are really joyful.
