Rabindranath Tagore (Bengali: রবীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুর) sobriquet Gurudev, was a Bengali polymath who reshaped his region's literature and music. Author of Gitanjali and its "profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse", he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. In translation his poetry was viewed as spiritual and mercurial; his seemingly mesmeric personality, flowing hair, and other-worldly dress earned him a prophet-like reputation in the West.

"We play from the time we wake till the day ends.
We play with the golden dawn, we play with the silver moon."
I ask, "But how am I to get up to you ?"
They answer, "Come to the edge of the earth, lift up your
hands to the sky, and you will be taken up into the clouds."
"My mother is waiting for me at home, "I say, "How can I leave

RABINDRANATH TAGOTE POEM
I would like to know if the following poem has been written by Tagore or by Gandhi: God, if you give the fortune, do not take my happiness. If you give the force, do not take from me the power of reasoning.
If you give me the success, do not take my humility.
If you give me humility, do not take my dignity.
God; hellp me to see the other side of things.
And so on......
Nice poems are written by Rabindranath Tagore
