Gitanjali is an integration of two words 'Git' and 'Anjali' which mean 'song' and 'offering' respectively. It is a collection of poems by the legendary Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore that highlights a strong divine connection between the supreme power, universe and the devotee itself. This mesmerising compilation makes the reader rejoice in the feeling that life is filled with colours, mystery and abundance.

Tagore's views on spirituality makes him one of the most influential poets from the post-independence era of Indian Literature.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was a renowned poet, musician, polymath, Ayurveda-researcher and an artist who recast music, Bengali literature and Indian art in the late 19th and early 20th century. Author of the "profoundly sensitive, revolutionary and beautiful verse" of Gitanjali, he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in the year 1913. Rabindranath Tagore was also

referred to as 'the Bard of Bengal'. His compositions "Jana Gana Mana" and "Amar Sonar Bangla" were embraced by two nations as their national anthems respectively.
