1 Answer

  1. Song of Radha, the Milkmaid Poem written by Sarojini Naidu is a love poem in which Radha expresses her deep and spiritual love for her beloved Krishna (also known by the name of Govinda). She is on her way to Mathura fair in order to sell curd. In the way, she keeps thinking of Govinda and unintentionally cries out his name repeatedly which makes other make fun of her. However she does not get disturbed by them.

    Reaching the fair, she could not sell her curd as she still remains in the thoughts of Govinda. Hence she rather goes to Mathura shrine and gifts curd to God and prays for the protection of herself and Govinda. She again starts crying out the name of Govinda which makes the priests angry on her. However she is not bothered by them.
