Dear blueapple:

Thanks for visiting. I don't plan to put up translations in this site. However, I will slowly post translations too. To see one of them, please visit my primary website . There you will find a link to my posts at "boloji blogs". One of the posts there is called That Cloud, which is a translation of a poem by Premendra Mitra. I am particularly fond of the poem.

You will find two other translations of Tagore at the following links:

and

http://www.indusladies.com/forums/snippets-of-life-non-fiction/91372-dedication.html

Both these translations stand revised now and are under consideration for publication in reviewed web_magazines. Unfortunately, rules do no permit me to publicize them yet.

If you keep track of my site dipankardasgupta.com, you'll be seeing translations over time.

Thanks again.
