Answer:
poet-written by Rabindranath Tagore
summary-tagore rightly says that one's head should never bow before anyone in any situation.one should always maintain brotherhood among all people one should always speak up his mind,mind should be free from all fear and should bear the freedom of speech.the knowledge should not be bounded by any forces,rather should be free from all bonds.the knowledge here also means the strength which the people should be bestowed with.people
should not be affected by any forces which would result in the world braking into fragments by walls created between each other.they should try hard to refrain themselves from such thoughts which would divide people and isolate them.everyone should be encouraged to reach their goals with perfection.mind should not dwell in mistakes rather should have the power of reasoning for a better future.tagore praise to almighty to gift him with such a nation that achieves not only political but also spiritual freedom
rhyme scheme-the poem does not have any rhyme scheme .the poem is in free verse.
favorite lines-'where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection'
why I like/don't like the poem-i like this poem because it is more like a prayer to God asking him to instill into the indians intellectual and a spirit of freedom.
figure of speech-alliteration,metaphor and personification .
----->'where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection'-alliteration(alphabet 's' is repeated to give a poetic effect).
--->personification-the poet is describing the kind of world in which he would like to live.
--->'the head is held high'-alliteration(the alphabet 'h' is repeated to give a poetic effect), metaphor-the Indian people regaining their pride and no longer being miserable under British rule.
---->where the world has not been broken up into fragments-metaphor-the Indian people must transcend their pretty differences and think beyond the needs of themselves and their immidiate
family.
where the clear stream of reasons has not lost its way-metaphor-just as a clear stream let's us see what is at the bottom of it so,does clear thinking get us to the Bottom of a problem.
into the dreary dessert sand of dead habit-metaphor-habits don't literally die,especially not while we are still using them so 'dead'.here stands as a metaphor for things we do repeatedly and unthinkingly .
into that haeaven of freedom,my father,let my country awake-personification-countries cannot literally awaken so the poet is personifying his own country.
