"My Golden Bengal" (2014) by poet and musician Rabindranath Tagore.
This is a collection of songs and poems by Tagore that express his love for Mother Earth and his overflowing gratitude, and have become the national anthems of India and Bangladesh.
This book is a Japanese translation of "A Country of One's Own" from Tagore's "Collection of Songs and Poems," and the title is an excerpt from the opening line of the first song. The song is still sung today, and as mentioned in the book, you can listen to it on YouTube, so please enjoy the sound and melody. By the way, in 2020, it was made into a documentary film titled "Tagore Songs," so it is recommended for anyone interested in Tagore and the people of Bengal (Ammel).
