About the Book

Foreword
Renowned Poets: Makhanlal Chaturvedi

"I don't wish to be adorned as an ornament of a beautiful
bride
I have no craving to be a gift presented to the beloved,
I don't cherish to be placed on the casket or grave of great
kings,
I never desire to be on the heads of the idols of Gods,
dear gardener rather pluck me and be throw me on the road
where the soldiers march forward to sacrifice their heads for their motherland!"

"A flower's wishes" by Makhanlal Chatturvedi

The above stanza is the translated version of the famous Hindi poem PUSHPA KI ABHILASHA written by Padma Bhusan Pandit Makhan Lal Chaturvedi. In this poem he expresses his feelings for his nation through a flower. The personified flower says that it is not preferable to become a garland of a beloved or to adorn the hair of beautiful women or be offered to God or on the funeral of great kings. The only wish the flower is to lie on the path on which brave soldiers pass to sacrifice their lives for the nation. 'A Flower's Wishes' is written in the Bilaspur prison, situated in present-day Chhattisgarh, was an allegorical poetry representing the nation's spirit of freedom and selfless sacrifice.

Pandit Makhan Lal Chaturvedi, was an Indian poet, writer, essayist, playwright and a journalist who is particularly remembered for his participation in India's national struggle for independence and his contribution to Chhayavaad and the Neo-romanticism movement of Hindi literature. He has taken an active part in the Non-Cooperation Movement and was jailed in 1921. His literature showed his intense desire for India's freedom from British rule.

His famous poems are "I am afraid of myself", The prisoner and the Nightingale", 'Climbing the mountain slowly" "Air," "Boon or curse", "youth", 'Immortal Nation" "Let me cry"
