Produced by Sankar Viswanathan, Thierry Alberto, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Indian Poetry" by Sir Edwin Arnold is a collection of translations and adaptations of classic Indian works, likely written in the late 19th century. This anthology includes significant pieces such as "The Indian Song of Songs," which draws from the Sanskrit text of the Gita Govinda, along with selections from the Mahabharata and various Oriental poems. The collection explores themes of love, devotion, and mythological narratives, prominently featuring the divine love story of Krishna and Radha. The opening of this poetic collection begins with an introduction, paying homage to the poet Jayadeva, who richly depicts the adventures and emotional struggles of Krishna in relation to his beloved Radha. It illustrates Krishna's playful yet tumultuous interactions with other maidens, setting the stage for themes of longing and love. The verses weave vivid imagery of the natural world, intertwined with human emotions, as Radha awaits Krishna's presence. The translations echo the lyrical quality of the originals while capturing the essence of divine romance, setting a tone of yearning and spiritual depth that invites readers into the intricate tapestry of Indian poetic tradition.
