Rabindranath Tagore Quotes About Mothers

Quotes about: Mothers

• The night kissed the fading day With a whisper: "I am death, your mother, From me you will get new birth."

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Death, Mother, Night

• The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Mother, Running, Night

  Rabindranath Tagore, Mohit Kumar Ray (2007). “Poems”, p.38, Atlantic Publishers & Dist

• Where is heaven? you ask me, my child,-the sages tell us it is beyond the limits of birth and death, unswayed by the rhythm of day and night; it is not of the earth. But your poet knows that its eternal hunger is for time and space, and it strives evermore to be born in the fruitful dust. Heaven is fulfilled in your sweet body, my child, in your palpitating heart. The sea is beating its drums in joy, the flowers are a-tiptoe to kiss you. For heaven is born in you, in the arms of the mother- dust.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Mother, Sweet, Children

  Rabindranath Tagore, “Lover's Gifts XLIV: Where Is Heaven”

• And because I love this life
  I know I shall love death as well
  The child cries out when
  From the right breast the mother
  Takes it away, in the very next moment
  To find in the left one
  Its consolation.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Mother, Rest In Peace, Children

  Rabindranath Tagore, Mohit Kumar Ray (2007). “Poems”, p.47, Atlantic Publishers & Dist

• It is the same life that emerges in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless waves of flower.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Mother, Flower, Dust

• Children who are decked with prince's robes and who have jeweled chains round their necks lose all pleasure in play; their dress hampers them at every step. In fear that it may be frayed, or stained with dust, they keep themselves from the world and are afraid ever to move. Mother, it is no gain, thy bondage of finery, if it keep one shut off from the healthful dust of the earth, if it rob one of the right of entrance to the great fair of common human life.

  Rabindranath Tagore

  Mother, Children, Moving

  Rabindranath Tagore, “Gitanjali”
