The poem "We Both Live in the Same Village" is from Rabindranath Tagore’s The Gardener, a collection of love poems.

Answer 1: In the poem, the speaker express his love for Ranjana using symbols from the natural environment of the village they live in. The symbolism emphasize the affection in phrases like: "The yellow bird sings in their tree and makes my heart dance with gladness", "Her pair of pet lambs come to graze near the shade of our garden"... The speaker feels happy because all the little things that link his life with the life of Ranjana.

Answer 2:  The proximity between the speaker and Ranjana is evidenced by phrases like: "We both live in the same village and that is our one piece of joy", "Only one field lies between us", this two phrases make clear that they live close to each other, but also the speaker uses more symbolic references to also emphasizes their proximity: "Bees that have hived in our grove go to seek honey in theirs", "When their linseed is ripe for harvest, the hemp is in bloom in our field" (this means that the harvest time is the same for both of them), "The stars that smile on their cottage send us the same twinkling look" (also means that they are really close).

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Death, the sun, a wall, and in some cases, freedom.
