Excerpt from India Revisited India, farewell! I shall not see again Thy shining shores, thy peoples of the sun Gentle, soft-mannered, by a kind word won To such quick kindness! O'er the Arab main Our flying flag streams back; and backwards stream My thoughts to those fair open fields I love, City and village, maidan, jungle, grove, The temples and the rivers!
