Patradoot Or the Messenger 34 /Many

Patradoot or the Messenger 34/Many………. English version by Ravindra K Kapoor Originally written in Hindi by my Late father Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor Like a naughty girl, she acts in many ways, dear letter, To attract our attention by laughing or even weeping, And often she gets angry on us still she wins our hearts, When she sings her broken melodies, while sweetly mumbling. As a lovely doll, she attracts and wins, Everyone’s attention and heart, dear, Remembrance of her sweet face, Has made my heart so heavy, As a newly come-up charming bud, She is dearer to us than our life, dear letter. She is even a darling of all the plants, Trees, creepers and flowers of our garden, dear. When the memories of her dear father, Would be splashing in her tender heart, dear letter, She would be going amid the plants and trees, To distract the memory of her father, dear. She is the hope and strength of her mother, When I am away for freedom struggle or in jail, In the lovely face of my daughter, you would find, An image of her father, dear letter. By the time you will get acquainted, With this lovely child of us and of nature, You would recollect immediately, dear letter, My message you have to convey to my beloved.

He wrote Patradoot in Hindi, when he was kept in Faizabad Jail for quite a long time. The Epic was written as a gift for my mother and it was sent to her secretly from Faizabad Jail. He was imprisoned by the British, as he was fighting for India's freedom under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi. He was imprisoned many times during 1920 to 1947. After India’s independence as a true follower of Gandhi Dr. Amar Nath Kapoor left active politics and devoted rest of his life in writing easy mass literature and wrote many Dramas, Poetry books, epics.
