Hello! For this post I will be exploring another poem written by Sarojini Naidu, called "Coromandel Fishers". This poem can be taken as an allegory, for although it speaks to fishermen, it's metaphoric value speaks to the nation, and can be considered a wakening call for the people of our country. When I wrote about "In the Bazaars of Hyderabad", I mentioned that Sarojini Naidu was one of our freedom fighters, and believed greatly in the Swadeshi movement. Naidu reflects her passion for India in this poem.

DeleteSuch amazingly intricate designs! Is there a certain significance or history to this custom? How long does the design last before fading? I'm curious.

The pattern lasts clearly for 3-4 days. After it starts to fade, it can stay for another week or so. I applied the henna on the 8th of December. It's the Eighteenth today and it's still on my hands!
