Gitanjali (Song Offerings), published in English in 1912, is a collection of devotional poems by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore, for which he became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. These lyrical and spiritual poems express a profound connection between the human soul and the divine. Drawing from the Upanishads and personal mysticism, Tagore’s language is meditative and universal. Gitanjali bridges Eastern and Western literary traditions, offering a message of unity, peace, and reverence that resonates across cultures.
