Sri Aurobindo — Roy, Dilip Kumar

September 1, 1931

Yes, your poem is full of sweetness and beauty alike of rhythm, expression and feeling – one among your best.

Nandalal’s¹ “transformation” is very good and will make a charming frontispiece for your book.

¹ Nandalal Bose (3 February 1883 – 16 August 1966), the great artist. “Transformation” is the meaning given by Mother to Millingtonia hortensis, the flower of the Indian cork tree.
