Summary in Marathi

लहानशी नदी ही कविता एका प्रवाहित लहानशा नदीचे वर्णन करते. उन्हाळ्यात ही नदी फक्त गुडघाभर खोल असते आणि गुरेढोरे तसेच बैलगाड्या सहज ओलांडू शकतात. तिच्या काठांवर उंच गवत आणि चमकणारी वाळू असते. पक्ष्यांची किलबिल आणि कोल्ह्यांच्या हाका ऐकू येतात. नदीच्या जवळ आंबा व नारळाच्या झाडांचे बन असते, जिथे गावातील पुजारी सावलीत विश्रांती घेतात. मुले व मुली आनंदाने पाण्यात डुंबतात आणि मासे पकडतात.

पावसाळ्यात मात्र नदीचे रूप पूर्णतः बदलते. आशाढ महिन्यात ती ओथंबून वाहते, प्रवाह वेगाने वाढतो आणि पाण्याचा कलकलाट सर्वत्र ऐकू येतो. गाव पावसाचे स्वागत करत पुन्हा जिवंत होतो. नदीच्या बदलत्या ऋतूंनुसार तिचे सौंदर्य व उपयोग बदलत जातात.

Summary in English

The poem The Little River by Rabindranath Tagore beautifully describes a small river and how it changes across seasons.

In summer, the river is shallow and calm, with water reaching only knee-deep. Cows and carts can easily cross it. The riverbanks are high but not too steep, and the sands shine brightly. Tall kash grass with white feathery flowers blooms along the shore. Birds like mynahs chirp happily, and jackals howl at night. Nearby, mango and palm groves provide shade where village priests rest. Young boys and girls enjoy playing and bathing in the river, splashing water with their gamchhas (thin cotton towels). Women use the river sand to clean their utensils.

However, in monsoon (Ashadh month), the river completely transforms. Heavy rain fills it, and the water level rises rapidly. The calm river turns into a strong, gushing current, carrying muddy water. The air is filled with the sound of rushing water, and the surrounding forest comes alive. The village wakes up with joy, celebrating the arrival of the rains.

The poem captures the contrast between summer and monsoon, highlighting the river’s beauty and importance in village life. Through vivid imagery, the poet brings out the peaceful, playful nature of the river in summer and its powerful, energetic form during monsoon.

Summary in Hindi

छोटी नदी कविता एक छोटी बहती नदी का सुंदर चित्रण करती है। गर्मियों में नदी बहुत ही उथली होती है, जिससे मवेशी और बैलगाड़ियाँ आसानी से पार कर सकती हैं। नदी के किनारे चमकती रेत, ऊँचा सफेद फूलों वाला घास और आम-नारियल के पेड़ देखे जा सकते हैं। पक्षियों की चहचहाहट और गीदड़ों की आवाज़ें सुनाई देती हैं। गाँव के लोग यहाँ नहाते हैं, बर्तन धोते हैं और छोटे मछलियों को पकड़ते हैं।

लेकिन आशाढ़ मास में नदी का रूप बदल जाता है। पानी बढ़कर तेज़ धारा में बदल जाता है और नदी का बहाव तेज़ हो जाता है। पानी की आवाज़ पूरे वातावरण में गूंजती है और नदी किनारे का जंगल जीवंत हो उठता है। पूरा गाँव बारिश का आनंद मनाने लगता है। कविता नदी के विभिन्न रूपों को सुंदरता से दर्शाती है।
