[edit]Stream of life is a particular stanza from the whole book of Gitanjali which is listed in s:Gitanjali Wikisource. This has a special significance as it has been used in the Dancing 2008 video and has itself went on to become a popular Bengali poem. Hence I have created a new page for it (other than for Gitanjali) which has the Bengali rendition of the same and the nglish meaning to the Bengali words.
Yes, its from Gitanjali and can be found on numerouts web pages on the internet (using google). It was pubished in 1910 and since then the copyright has ended.
The whole source of Gitanjali is available at wikisource
So please remove the warning.

I have remover the lyrics. They are not appropriate for an encyclopedia article, and in any case, the full text is linked to in wikisource. -- Whpq (talk) 21:01, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
Only the lyrics in English is present. The original lyrics in Bengali is not in there. So restoring it back.--Sandyiit (talk) 17:55, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Please suggest changes. As mentioned in Wikipedia:Glossary#Wikify, wiki markup is used and not HTML. There is already a good number of internal links in the small article. Sandyiit (talk) 21:19, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
Which poem, precisely, is translated in the table?
[edit]I'm baffled. The lyrics provided in the table are clearly not a match for the poem "Stream of Life," which I've almost entirely quoted in the opening paragraphs. Every Google search assures one that "Stream of Life" = "Praan" = the Bangla lyrics ... but the lyrics "In the lightning and thunder, your flute plays, / But that is no ordinary tune..." are not the words of the poem. So does "Praan" refer to some other poem, and if so, do we leave the page as is, anyway? I began working on the page only because I'm a fan of the song and the Harding video, and I had questions that I thought I'd learn the answers to, but I'm walking away with a bigger and worse one. LOL. If anyone out there can reassure me that these Frankenstein parts do match, I'll be grateful. OcelotHod (talk) 03:20, 30 August 2025 (UTC)
