Rajani

The collection features lyrical and romantic poetry that reflects Dhan Gopal Mukerji's feelings of beauty, isolation, and exile as he navigates life far from his native Bengal. The opening poem, "Bhikshu's Song," introduces a Buddhist monk and evokes memories of home through the repetition of a mantra. Mukerji skillfully blends English meter with the essence of Bengal, illustrating his yearning for his homeland. Despite never returning to India, his work embodies a profound commitment to Indian independence and leaves a lasting literary legacy.
